Join us as we continue in Ephesians 4:3–7, building on our discussion of vv. 1–3 to show how the character Paul describes is necessary for and enables the kind of unity he calls us to. Tucked away in his comments is the potent metaphor of the church as a body, which we take the time to discuss at length. Paul’s portrait of our mutual interdependence and support is set squarely against core elements of our cultural identity as proudly self-sufficient, providing us with much food for thought.
