Christ has ascended! While Christians give a lot of focus to the death and resurrection of Christ, we nod our heads at His ascension. Yet, contained in the ascension of Jesus is His exaltation, coronation, and a revelation of His majestic supremacy! Join Nathan Johnson in this study of Ephesians 4:8–10 as we examine Paul’s parenthetical statement about the majesty and preeminence of Christ Jesus in the context of Him giving gifts to the Church.

When a new president enters office, there is a lot of housecleaning, changes, and reforms that are made within the the first week. This change of power allows for a deep transformation to take place (for good or for bad). The Church and our souls are also in need of a “DOGE” (department of government efficiency). In this stirring episode, Eric and Nathan talk about the importance of humbling coming to the Spirit of God and allowing Him to search and try our lives. As they remind us, if there is anything in our lives (even good things) that are pulling or distracting us from Jesus or His calling in our lives, it needs to be removed. The truths contained in this episode have the ability to radically change your life, and we are excited for you to give it a listen!------------» Take these studies deeper and be discipled in person by Eric, Leslie, Nathan, and the team at Ellerslie in one of our upcoming discipleship programs – learn more at: https://ellerslie.com/be-discipled/» Receive our free “Five Keys to Walking Through Difficulty” PDF by going to: https://ellerslie.com/subscribe/» For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/daily» If you have been blessed by Ellerslie, consider partnering with the ministry by donating at: https://ellerslie.com/donate/» Discover more resources, books, and sermons from Eric Ludy by going to: https://ellerslie.com/about-eric-ludy/

You have received the ultimate gift from Jesus Christ—His grace! While many of us think of one aspect of grace (salvation from sin), we miss what Peter calls the “manifold wonder of grace”—the many layers and characteristics of His grace.
