Ephesians
A twelve-week Bible study for men beginning Tuesday, January 12, 2027.
What this study is
Paul’s letter to the Ephesians gives us one of Scripture’s richest pictures of what God has done for us in Christ and what it means to live in response to the gospel.
Across twelve weeks, Miami Bible Forum will work through the letter through personal study, expository teaching, group discussion, and application.
Themes we expect to meet along the way:
- Our identity in Christ
- Grace
- Redemption
- The church
- Unity
- Spiritual maturity
- Christian living
- Relationships
- Spiritual warfare
- Prayer
- Perseverance
Why this letter, and why now
Ephesians moves from what God has done in Christ to how we are called to live. Its opening chapters are full of grace, redemption, and our place in Christ. Its closing chapters turn to unity, love, wisdom, relationships, and perseverance.
It is a letter about the church as much as about the individual: how God is gathering a people from different backgrounds into one body in Christ.
Because it is short enough to read in a sitting and deep enough to reward a slow reading, it suits a twelve-week study well.
How each week works
Every week follows the same pattern, so participants know what to expect and can prepare well.
Prepare
Read and engage the passage before the gathering. Participants may receive the Scripture reading, questions, observations to consider, and background information.
Learn
Receive clear, expository teaching on what the passage says, its literary and historical context, its major themes, and its place in the larger message of Scripture.
Discuss
Ask questions, share observations, examine the passage, and consider interpretations together, respectfully. The aim is not to trade opinions. Scripture remains the authority.
Apply
Consider how the text bears on belief, character, relationships, decisions, prayer, and Christian living.
