    Ephesians Week 1 // "in Christ" // Nick Fox

    This Week at Genesis | Ephesians 1:1–14 Nick Fox kicked off our new series in Ephesians by walking through the opening passage of Paul’s letter and the powerful reminder of who we are in Christ. In these first verses, Paul keeps returning to one phrase: “in Christ.” It’s a simple idea, but it carries incredible depth. Through Jesus we are chosen, redeemed, forgiven, and brought into God’s family. Paul describes it as adoption—a picture of God lovingly bringing us in and giving us a new identity that isn’t based on what we’ve done, but on His grace. This passage also reminds us that God’s work didn’t start with us. Before the foundation of the world, God had a plan to bring everything together in Christ—and we’re invited into that story. Because of Jesus, we now live as people who are loved, chosen, and sealed with the Holy Spirit as a promise of what’s to come. 📖 Scripture: Ephesians 1:1–14 ✨ Themes: Identity in Christ, Adoption into God’s family, Grace and redemption, God’s bigger story, Sealed with the Holy Spirit About Genesis Costa Mesa: We are a Jesus-centered community shaped by the table, worship, prayer, story, and mission.
