Thirteenth Sunday of Pentecost - Live Prayerfully: Putting on the Armor of God

On this Thirteenth Sunday after Pentecost we continue our series on life in Christ through Paul's letter to the church in Ephesus.  We live out our lives as the people of God as we are "in Christ."  This series in Ephesians challenges us to live out our lives as a community of God's people rooted "in Christ."

Connect to Live Prayerfully: Put on the Armor of God.   The focus is on Ephesians 6: 10-20.  How do we go about living prayerfully in a world that is overwrought with struggle - against rulers, authorities and powers, against evil?  We do not war against flesh and blood, but we do struggle for flesh and blood.  To live prayerfully is to put on the "armor of God" - living a life of praying in the power of the Spirit.
