0:00.0	Hey Bible readers, I'm Tara Lee Cobble, and I'm your host for the Bible Recap.
0:12.5	For our New Testament readers, we just finished our 15th book, and for our full Bible readers,
0:17.7	we finished book 54.
0:20.1	Ephesus is in modern-day Turkey.

1:11.1	that action is the same power that resides in his kids via his spirit. Chapter 2 is an overview
1:17.2	of the past, present, and future of every believer. We were dead in our sins. We were slaves
1:22.8	to our flesh doing whatever it wanted. And by nature, we were children of wrath, just like everybody else.
1:29.2	There was nothing special about us. We weren't especially good or moral or awesome. So what happened?
