In One Body
We end our “In One Body” series by talking about the armor of God in Ephesians 6, and end talking about something that most people seem to miss in the reading. Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 6:10–20 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in the strength of his might. Put on the whole armor of God, that…
We continue our “In One Body” series by talking about a reading from Ephesians that is considered offensive to many people, but we dive into it and look at what it means for us to be Christians, husbands, wives, and single persons. Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 5:22–33 Wives, submit to your own husbands, as to the Lord.…
Today we talked about wisdom and advice, and how God’s best piece of advice isn’t advice at all, but is the wisdom of the Cross that says “you are forgiven”. Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 5:6–21 Let no one deceive you with empty words, for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of…
We talk about what it means to be a part of the Body by talking about how it is like theft when we don’t function as our place in the Body. Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 4:17–32 Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in…

Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 3:14–21 For this reason I bow my knees before the Father, from whom every family in heaven and…
Hatfields, McCoys, Noles, Gators, Canes, Republicans, Democrats, etc etc. We separate ourselves in all sorts of ways, but the amazing thing about the Gospel is how being covered in the Blood of Jesus means that we’re all together – at least in terms of our sins and forgiveness. Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 2:11–22 Therefore remember that at…
Today we start a new series based on the book of Ephesians called “In One Body” by looking at the pronouns and the communal nature of the Body of Christ that Paul is pointing churches to, both in early and later history. Sermon Scripture: Ephesians 1:3–14 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord…
