Exposition of Ephesians: Life in the Spirit in Marriage, Home and Work
Digital Logos Edition
Overview
We're living in a time when the institute of marriage is being queried, the generation-gap emphasized, parental control flouted and derided, and industrial strife rampant. These matters are of contemporary concern, but by no means are exclusive to our era. As Lloyd-Jones shows in this volume, Ephesians long ago conveyed the practical knowledge Christians require to face these tough issues.

About Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones
Dr. Martyn Lloyd-Jones (1899-1981) was born in Cardiff. He attended St. Bartholomew’s Hospital as an assistant to the famous Lord Horder. Returning to Wales after leaving medicine in 1927, he became the minister of a Welsh Presbyterian Church in Aberavon, South Wales. He was there until 1938 when he moved to London to share the ministry of Westminster Chapel in Buckingham Gate with the late Dr. G. Campbell Morgan. This ministry lasted for 30 years until Dr. Lloyd-Jones retired in August 1968. He best-loved works include Singing to the Lord, Not Against Flesh and Blood, Heirs to Salvation, and True Happiness.
