(11-21-21) Jesus in Marriage, Parenting, and Workplace - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 5:15-6:9

We are not our own, but we belong to God. Jesus is our reference point for living. It involves yielding to the will or needs of others. In these passages, we see that roadmap: submission to the Holy Spirit, mutual submission to one another, and application in our marriage, our parenting, and our workplace.

(11-14-21) Why Baptism? - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Romans 6:1-10

Before baptizing individuals in the service, we look at the historical and spiritual aspects of water baptism. We see that it is more than symbolic of Christ's death and resurrection. The Spirit of God empowers us to put aside the old ways of sin, and to walk in the new life in Christ.

(11-7-21) Imitation of Christ - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 5:1-14

We are called to live in the image of Christ. It's a life of love, thinking more of others than of ourselves, and avoiding immoral, impure and selfish acts. This can only be accomplished by asking the Holy Spirit to fill us and guide us daily.

(10-31-21) A Transformed Community in Christ - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 4:17-32

Paul has shared what our calling is as Christians, and how we should walk worthy of that calling. In this passage of his letter to the Ephesians, he addresses the characteristics of our old life, and the qualities that should be manifest in our new life in Christ. We need to be transformed as individuals and as a community.

(10-24-21) Walking Worthy of His Calling - Elder Joel Porter

Ephesians 4:1-16

God has called the Church to share the Gospel of Jesus. He has given us gifts to help accomplish that, but He also expects us to exhibit love, humility, patience and unity. As we unite around the basics of the Gospel, we become mature and effective witnesses of that Good News.

(10-17-21) Our Stewardship of the Gospel - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 3

The Good News is that Jesus Christ shed His blood for our sake, so that we all can share together in His promises, when we trust in that sacrifice. As Paul tells of his calling to share this Gospel to the world, he challenges us to do the same, telling the world about God's amazing love and mercy.

(10-10-21) Tearing Down Walls of Hostility - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 2:11-22

The Gospel is a call to radical living. Since we are reconciled to God through Christ, we should actively seek reconciliation in areas of our life. As we live out the Good News of Jesus, we can see the breaking down of walls of hostility between us and others.

(10-3-21) Reconciled by Grace - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 2:1-10

As Paul continues his letter to the Ephesians, he reminds us that our sins and transgressions sentence us to be separated from God for eternity, but that, by God's grace, we are reconciled to Him,  when we place our faith in the sacrifice of Christ for us.

(9-26-21) Knowing God - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 1:15-23

As we continue in our study of Ephesians, Paul gives a long prayer for the believers to really know God; to know the hope we can find in Him, as well as His power. Knowing more about Him brings knowledge, but knowing Him means a true relationship with Him. 

(9-19-21) Reconciling All Things in Christ - Pastor Daniel Nelms

Ephesians 1:1-14

As we begin the study of Ephesians, we see the blessings of being known by God. That leads to the revelation of God's redemption in Christ and the final plans for all things. The passage concludes with the promise of our inheritance as sons and daughters of God our Father.
