Ephesians
Living as God's Good News People
Standing Strong in the Lord
November 13, 2022 • Jimmy Martin • Exodus 6:10–20
Today, as we finish our series on “Living as God’s Good News People," we are encouraged to see that living for Jesus always puts us at odds with our enemy, the devil and his evil forces. We are called to join together in this spiritual battle and to stand strong in the Lord.
Jesus and the Workplace
November 6, 2022 • Jimmy Martin • Ephesians 6:5–9
God’s Holy Spirit brings harmony in our workplaces when we practice the Golden Rule as employers and employees. Our witness can be strengthened or weakened by how we approach our jobs each day. Work is both an activity God is involved with Himself and a gift that God has given us as human beings. Seeing our work as a gift from God helps us to work in the right way and with the right attitude.

God's Holy Spirit brings unity and harmony in the home when parents and children practice genuine discipleship in their relationship with each other. What is the role of the child in the home? What is the role of the parent in the home? A Healthy Home brings honor to Christ, and all family members submit as children to God the Father.

Join us this morning as we dive into how to practice living the Christian life.
Healthy Pieces
October 9, 2022 • Beaux Pace • Ephesians 4:16
Christ's design for the church is the great picture He is creating in this world, but how do we fit into this puzzle? What does it look like to be a "healthy piece" of Christ's grand puzzle? When Christ remains as our corner and border pieces, and we work together to fit ourselves where God has designed us to be fit, suddenly the picture becomes more clear.
The Church: Defined
September 25, 2022 • Jimmy Martin • Ephesians 3:1–12
The church is central to God's plan for the world. God calls us to embrace His vision of a people who are part of His eternal family. Join us this morning as we look at how Ephesians 3 defines the calling of Christ upon the body.
Christian Kindergarten
September 11, 2022 • Beaux Pace • Ephesians 1:15–23
Robert Fulghum wrote a best selling book called "All I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten." When you think about it, many of the basic truths of how to live a beneficial life were taught to us in Kindergarten. The book of Ephesians contains many of the Christian Kindergarten beliefs that show us how to live a biblical, Godly life every day. This morning, let's go back to Kindergarten and learn the simple, yet profound truths that can be found in the book of Ephesians.
