In this last sermon in the book of Ephesians, we look at the marks of what a true Christian looks like.…

The Christian life is described in various ways throughout Scripture; one of them being a battle. The Scriptures assume a reality of evil that we can not always see, yet is real and powerful. Yet as Christians, we don't fight for victory but we fight from a place of victory because of the finished work of Jesus and the power of the Spirit. In this …

"Honor your father and mother." Raise your kids "in the discipline and instruction of the Lord." While these verses are in many ways clear to understand, they are also complex and challenging to live out in everyday life.

Formation in the way of Jesus must be stronger than the formation of the world. This is what Ephesians 5:11-21 is all about. Each one of us are either being formed into the way of Jesus or we are being deformed into the way of the world. There is no middle ground. In this teaching we explore what it looks like to be formed in the way of Jesus.…

In Christ there is a whole new way to be human but living as a new human is not automatic. Discipleship to Jesus means we must learn what it means to put off the old way and put on the new.

The church must be a place of relational beauty and that requires something of you. While healthy doctrine is of vital importance, our doctrine must inform and transform the way we relate to one another. Starting in Ephesians 4, Paul takes the beauty of gospel doctrine and begins to apply it to the ways Christians are meant to practically live out …

We sing, we read, we talk about God's love often, and rightly so. But why is it often difficult to truly believe God loves me; not some future or curated version of me? In Ephesians 3, we explore Paul's prayer that God’s people will grow in believing and receiving God's love.Bob Thune

Everyone has a story and everyone is still writing their story. In Ephesians 3 we see how Paul knows his own story, knows God's story and knows what it means to live in God's story. The question becomes, whose story are you living in? It is only when we get caught up in God's larger story do we live lives of meaning, intentionality and purpose. Bec…

Why is it that essentially every modern person values diversity and equity? Well, Christianity and the gospel. But our world is longing for real, meaningful unity. In Ephesians 2 we find the power and purpose for unity. God's heart is for his church to be a people where different people - different racially, ethnically, socio-economically, politica…

When the gospel came to Ephesus in the first century AD, a riot broke out. The good news of Jesus upended pagan ways of thinking and living. A similar confrontation awaits us as we encounter Paul’s letter to the Ephesians. This glorious epistle challenges us to ponder the story we're living in, the purpose we're pursuing, and the relationships we'r…

To remedy this deficiency, this preaching series takes us back t…
