Christ's Church

Join us as we look into the meaning of advent as we use this time to remember the birth of Christ and celebrate His coming.

Ephesians 6:10-18 Finally, be strong in the Lord and in his mighty power. Put on the full armor of God, so that you can take your stand against the devil’s schemes. For our struggle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers, against the authorities, against the powers of this dark world and against the spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms. Therefore put on the full armor of...

Ephesians 5:1-20 Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.

Ephesians 4:1-7 As a prisoner for the Lord, then, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of the Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one Spirit, just as you were called to one hope when you were called; one Lord, one faith, one baptism; o...

Ephesians 3, Paul tells us about God's plan for our lives through the work God has done in our lives. As Christians, we are saved, we have been made new, and we proclaim this good news of God's grace to others. Paul is encouraging the Ephesians to proclaim this good news, and this message is also to us!

Ephesians 2:1-10 is the passage we are looking at today. Join us as we read about how we were once dead in our transgressions but through Christ, we have been made alive!

Ephesians 1:3-14 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ. For he chose us in him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in his sight. In love he predestined us for adoption to sonship through Jesus Christ, in accordance with his pleasure and will— to the praise of his glorious gra...

Revelation 3:20 wraps up Jesus' words to the church of Laodicea and He says, "Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me."

Jesus promised the church of Philadelphia "to keep them from the hour of trial which shall come upon the whole world," (Revelation 3:10) because they kept His command to persevere. He told them to continue to persevere for His name so that no one could take their crown. This same message applies to us today. Hold fast to His commands. Rely fully on Him no matter what comes our way. So "that no one...

The presence of salt changes whatever it is around. And if we are to be the salt and light of the earth, we are to change whatever we are around because of the Spirit of God living inside of us. The church of Sardis looked alive but they were dead. Will we follow Jesus, or will we blend in with culture?

In a world that is constantly telling you give in, indulge, be you... Jesus is saying hold fast to the truth. Stand upon My word. And those who are victorious will receive a victor's crown.

The church of Pergamum was encouraged for their faith but many of them were committing idol worship and sexual immorality. Jesus would go on to tell them, "Repent therefore! Otherwise, I will soon come to you and will fight against them with the sword of my mouth."

The church of Smyrna was encouraged in their suffering and persecution for the faith that they had.

The church of Ephesus lost its first love; God. What does it look like to keep your faith alive?

Too many times people have tried to “crack the code” of Revelation to figure out when Jesus will return. But for the Believers in Asia Minor, that was the wrong question to ask. They were trying to figure out how to live as faithful followers of Jesus anxiously awaiting the return of the King!

With great freedom comes great responsibility. Andrew examines Galatians 6 and how we as the church can best use the freedom we have in Christ and by His Spirit.

Jeff takes a look at Galatians 4, the obstacles the early church faced from those who wanted them to live in slavery to the Old Covenant Law, and what it means to live as heirs of Christ.

We can never earn a good relationship with God through our own rule-following or good works; it only comes through faith in the work of Jesus.

The Gospel is the story of creation, redemption, and restoration found in Jesus. When we get the Gospel right, it transforms everything it touches.
