Summary

In this sermon from our Soapbox Sundays series, Yelena explores the layered and universal idea of "home". Grounded in Ephesians 2:19–22, this message looks at how Christ breaks down dividing walls, invites outsiders into full belonging, and joins us together into a living sanctuary where God makes a home. Key Topics Covered: The Complexity of Home: How personal memories, mobility, and cultural contexts shape our understanding of home. Who Gets to Belong? Exploring Ephesians 2:19–22 and how Paul redefines household, citizenship, and community. Home as a Place of Becoming: Moving away from a static view of home to see community as an active, ongoing work in progress. Where God is at Home: Reflecting on the biblical narrative of home, homelessness, and homecoming. Scripture: Ephesians 2:19–22 ★ Support this podcast ★
