Many people search for meaning in family, career, and personal freedom, but these alone don’t always satisfy. True purpose comes from relationships—especially with God and others. When we love, serve, and share our gifts, we find real fulfillment and joy. Life’s greatest meaning is found in loving God, loving people, and making a positive difference.

Pastor Joni discusses this and more in her sermon, Purpose, from Ephesians 1:3–14. Along with this primary passage, she will draw from Genesis 1:26, Genesis 2:18, Isaiah 43:6–7, Jeremiah 9:23–24, and Matthew 16:25.
