Two at the Same Time

August 13, 2023 • Gerrit Dawson • Ephesians 1:1–3

The Father of our Lord Jesus Christ has already blessed you in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms. He has already called you to himself in grace. He has already sent you to love and witness in his name. You already live from your heavenly home in Christ even though you’re stationed here on Earth.

Putting on the New Self

November 19, 2023 • Colton Underwood • Ephesians 4:25–32

When we allow our anger to simmer in our hearts for more than just a moment, it begins to seep into our very souls. We drink the poison and the bitterness it creates is sin. The Lord wants us to know that if we do this, even if the anger seems justified in the moment, we give an opportunity to the devil. We need to trust the judge of the earth to do rightly. Pray the Psalms and give your frustration to the Lord. #newself #sermon #worship #ephesians4 #firstpresbyterianbr #fyp

Renew!

November 12, 2023 • Gerrit Dawson • Ephesians 4:17–24

In your thoughts. Be renewed. Refresh your thoughts by recalling who Jesus is and who you are in Jesus. Gather in honest, joyful community with other believers. Remind each other of the story. Lift up your hearts and voices. Renew your commitment. Renew your mind according to the truth, for the truth is in Jesus. #renewyourmind #injesus #commitment #sermon #worship #ephesians4 #firstpresbyterianbr

Serve the Work!

November 5, 2023 • Gerrit Dawson • Ephesians 4:7, Ephesians 4:11–16

The church gathered re-adjusts us to the reality of God week by week. When we learn of our share in the work of ministry, we begin to view not just church life but all of life through this lens. Everything that matters requires that we serve the work that makes the vision come to be. This can be keeping house, raising a family, living a profession, landscaping, accounting, teaching, leading, cleaning. When serving the work of Christ through his church gets in our blood, we realize that we can do our whole lives for his sake. It’s all ministry. And therefore, it’s all the adventure of journeying with Jesus in the company of these saints he’s given you.
