Publisher's Description
In this expositional commentary of the Letter to the Ephesians, Paul shares that the universal goodness of the gospel--the news of grace and truth from Jesus Christ--is not just for Jews but is for all people, regardless of birth, tribe, or nationality. And, in his letter to the first-century church at Ephesus, Paul gives realistic and practical guidance for how to live as one people of the gospel in words that are as relevant today as they were in the first century.

“The book has clearly exposed the essential message of Paul in Ephesians as the grace of Christ! The book is richly illustrated with many of Palmer’s favorite stories and quotations, and he deftly links it with Acts and Paul’s other letters. . . . I’m delighted that Palmer’s teaching of grace can be more widely spread through his new book.”
“Palmer’s remarkable gifts as a preacher, teacher, and author are once again on display in this study of Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians. As one of the tens of thousands around the world whose relationship with God in Jesus Christ has been strengthened and built up by the ministry of Earl Palmer, I give thanks for Called to Be a People of the Gospel and encourage others to read it.”
“No preacher in America in the last fifty years has done a better job of introducing people to the mystery and power of Paul’s letters than Earl Palmer. Mining Paul’s Letter to the Ephesians for the better part of a century, he presents us here with the fruit of his labor: bright diamonds and polished gems on page after page!”
“My soul was deeply stirred as I read this. For two reasons. One, Earl’s penetrating insights into the good news Paul is opening up for us in his letter, articulated in Earl’s winsome, engaging style. And two, the way Earl takes us into the heart and mind of Paul. . . . Reading Earl’s exposition of the letter is really a reading of the soul of a human being gripped by Jesus Christ and his gospel.”
