Who Am I?

Nappanee Missionary Church

Who Am I?

September 8, 2024 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Ephesians 1:1–2

Introductions tell you a lot about a person. Introductions are an opportunity for you to give others insight into who you are. So, who are you? What makes you you? Whether using a social media bio, a meet and greet, or an autobiography, how do you identify yourself?

Stand, Church

October 27, 2024 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Ephesians 6:10–18

At the close of his letter, the Apostle Paul sums up everything he has been communicating to the churches in Ephesus and the larger Asia Minor area. He gives a clear, repetitive message to the community of faith: “STAND.” There will be opposition from the enemy, so the response of the Church is to STAND. We're to put on the full armor that God makes available to us through His Son Jesus Christ and STAND!

Corruption of the Best

October 20, 2024 • Pastor Peter Damaska • Ephesians 5:1—6:9

If there was anyone in history who “called it like they see it,” we would agree the Apostle Paul fits the description. He is adept at describing Jesus, grace, human relationship, and deep truths about God’s love for His creation. His writings often give clear contrasts between the best and the worst in our world. But more than simply pointing out what’s wrong, Paul gives a message of accessible hope and doable practices for how to live out our everyday lives.

Called Out

October 13, 2024 • Pastor Tim Veenstra • Ephesians 4:1–16

In the first three chapters of Ephesians, we fix our gaze on what God has done. BUT GOD! These first three chapters set the stage for the last three chapters. In light of what God has done, we—the Body of Christ—are called to live a life worthy of that calling. Chapter four lays out practical implications for what it looks like to live as a part of the new society God is creating.
