● Share any observations or questions from the passage or the
sermon.

REFLECT and RESPOND
● Read Ephesians 2:11- 22.
● Why was there a “dividing wall of hostility” between Gentiles and
Jews? What “dividing walls of hostility” are still active in our
community and world today? What walls do we build, and why do we
build them? How did Christ destroy the wall?
● Reflecting on Ephesians 2:14-22, what all has Christ accomplished?
● Paul emphasizes that Christ has reconciled us both to God and to
one another in Ephesians 2:16. How can we practically live out this
dual reconciliation in our relationships with God and with others?
● Why does Paul make the distinction between aliens and citizens in
Ephesians 2:19? What does this mean for our own community in the
church and how we relate to those outside the church?
● Consider the imagery of the “household of God” in Ephesians 2:19.
How does viewing ourselves as members of God’s household
influence our relationships with fellow believers and our sense of
belonging within the church?
● Paul began this section of Ephesians instructing us to remember.
Why is it important to remember who we were before Christ? And
who we are in Christ?
