Ephesians
5:6-14
Our scripture comes from Ephesians, one of the letters
attributed to Paul, but which was most likely written by one of his
disciples. It is a general letter, most
probably written to circulate among several churches rather than addressing one
particular church. I will focus on the
instruction to “live as children of light,” or as Mary Oliver puts it “make of
yourself a light.” What does it mean to
be a light in today’s world?
