Not only them, but people outside of Corinth, both Jew and Gentile. What does it mean to “Call on the name of the Lord”? Does that mean we can just call on Jesus and be saved? What about baptism?

Why does he say this? From the very beginning of the letter, Paul has reminded the church at Ephesus that all our blessings, everything we have, the right standing we have with God the Father, all comes through Jesus. He has been talking about the unity we have and how we should throw off the desires of the flesh and continue to strive for maturity in Christ and unity. He breaks down the family unit describing how to keep unity because it creates strength. When we get our eyes off Jesus and onto our situations, onto ourselves, and we try to handle things ourselves, we'll discover quickly that we cannot and we really do need one another. Why? Because we encourage one another to stay focused on Jesus...where we ALL get our strength from. strength, strong, unity, union, Lord, Jesus, mature, maturity Paul says in vs10 to "Be strong in the Lord."

In this episode we take a look at making homemade bread. I've never made it before so I borrowed a recipe from a website that has. One of the main ingredients to make bread is yeast. Without the yeast, the loaf won't be a loaf...it will be flat like a pancake, or maybe a tortilla! Jesus says the kingdom of God is like a little bit of yeast that was added to a big lump of dough. That little bit of yeast took over that dough and caused it to rise. Just like that yeast, when Jesus comes into our lives he makes a huge impact; he changes everything about us.
