After making the command to put off the old and put on the new, Paul now gives specific instruction on just how we are to do that. Here in Ephesians 4:25-32 Paul deals with anger and our speech.  He further explains how important this is because if we speak and act according to the old life, we are causing the Holy Spirit of God, who dwells in us, to grieve.  The new man, on the other hand,  builds up others and displays the compassion and forgiveness of Christ.  Join us in looking at just how these different lifestyles can play …

It says in 1 Corinthians 4:17 that “if any man be in Christ he is a new creation, old things have passes away, behold all things have become new”.  We don’t, however, always want to let go of the old, we want to hang on to it.  We are used to it, we are comfortable with it, and it has shared a lot of habits together with us.  As we look at Ephesians 4:17-24, we will start to get an understanding why it is so important to be done with the old and live in the new God has given …

In Ephesians 4 we read: “And He Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the edifying of the body of Christ (NKJV)” Before Easter we studied about the importance of the whole church working together to accomplish God’s work, giving a special emphasis to the fact that God has sufficiently equipped us to do His work.  This Sunday I want to focus on the Pastor/Teachers job – what is it?  Is just about preaching, marrying, and burying?  What has God …

A time of music, Scripture, and hope as we look at the Resurrection of Jesus Christ.  We join the disciples in their despair Saturday night and Sunday morning and see the transformation that was produced when Christ rose from the dead, giving them much more to live for, much more to hope in.  God wants to do the same for you!      

Enjoy a time of music, Scripture, and reflection as we remember the incredible sacrifice God made for us on the cross.  Our focus will be on the Scriptural account and the significance of the events of that terrible day that produced the most wonderful gift.

God has called us to a certain way of life and a purpose for life, but do we make excuses for not living that out?  Isn’t it easy to look at what God has called us to do and say “I can’t”?  What we need to realize is that is a lie.  It is only true if you were expected to do it apart from Christ and His supply.  That, however, is not case for believers.  God has given us the equipping we need to live out His mission for us.  He has supplied the trainers and the power.  Watch …
