The Book of Ephesians is such an amazing book. The more I read it, the more I see how parts fit together & form a fluid whole. It begins by speaking our identity in Christ. Then, it teaches us how to relate to one another. It also covers how we relate to the spiritual world.
The first two chapters speak on our identity as sons, our nearness to God, our relationship to the Holy Spirit, our relationship to the throne of God, & our authority over powers of darkness through Christ.
Chapter 3 lays out the love of Christ as being our foundation for relationship with each others as living stones, & chapters 4 & 5 show us how to relate to each other in family relationships and in the church relationships--all pointing back to Christ as the example.
Then chapter 6 gives us points on spiritual warfare & practical exhortations for life. I love that book! I recommend taking this week & reading it once through everyday as a whole, & ask God to speak to you about it. It can be read out loud in 30 minutes.
