Sermon: Lunch Notes | Back to School Sunday // Brent Levy

Date August 24, 2025Synopsis In this sermon, we explore how handwritten letters—from a principal's encouraging notes to students to the Apostle Paul's letters to early Christians—remind us of our true identity and purpose. Through Paul's letter to the Ephesians, we discover a profound truth: we are God's accomplishment (poiēma), masterpieces created not by our own achievements but through divine grace. This identity frees us to participate in God's work of mending what's broken in our world, one faithful act at a time. Scripture: Ephesians 2:1-10.About The Local Church For more information about The Local Church, visit our website. Feedback? Questions? Comments? We'd love to hear it.
