“Talking the Walk” by Greg Chandler

An old statement goes, “Put your money where your mouth is.” The meaning is that words are fruitless if there is nothing to back them up.” The Apostle Paul would agree with this concept and perhaps repurpose the statement to say, “Put your walk where your mouth is.” As he wrote to the Ephesian Christians, Paul keenly focused on the importance of their walk in Christ; he used the word walk seven times in the letter, with five of the occurrences found in chapters four and five. Interspersed with these walk directives, the apostle calls on Christians to pay close attention to what they say, ensuring that their words and walk are in one accord. This study will focus on Paul’s commands relating to a Christian’s words and how these words must always demonstrate full reliance on Jesus and His truth.
