This is the second installment in a six-part series entitled Amazing Ellerslie Moments. In this series Eric and Nathan unpack the powerful and profound beginnings of the Ellerslie ministry, sharing fun stories rarely heard outside the intimate leadership team. This particular episode discusses the beautiful way that God built the Ellerslie leadership team.

What does it mean to “learn Christ”? Paul answers with three specifics—the first being to put off the old man (the corrupt sinful, selfish nature we all have prior to Christ). In this study, we examine Ephesians 4:22 and what it means to “put off” sin so that we might live as new creations in Christ Jesus.

God is calling each of us in such a time as this - are we listening? As Christians, each of us must ask ourselves what we living for - this life, or eternity? In this episode, Leslie challenges us to remove our own personal safety cones and become willing to take risks for the glory of God.

In this series Eric and Nathan unpack the powerful and profound beginnings of the Ellerslie ministry, sharing fun stories rarely heard outside the intimate leadership team.

We don’t learn godliness by living in sin; rather, as Paul declares, we have learned Christ for truth is in Jesus. In this study, we examine Ephesians 4:20–21, and Paul’s argument for us to be schooled in Christ. Want to listen to the previous studies in Ephesians?

This is the first installment in Eric's newest series entitled Tough Questions . In this episode, Nathan Johnson acts as host and tosses Eric his first question, which, by the way, is not the question Eric was expecting to answer in this first episode.

There is a great depth of depravity in the lives of unbelievers. And while selfishness and sin once marked our lives (in the past), it should no longer be a part of how we live. In Ephesians 4:17–19, Paul describes the old life (and the current life of unbelievers) and boldly argues that this is NOT how we are to live. We are, as Paul exhorts, to put off this former way of living because we have b...

This is the first episode in Leslie’s seven-part Victorious Living series. As the world around us becomes more hostile toward true Christianity and the Body of Christ becomes more comfortable with mediocrity, each of us must grapple with the question--how far are we willing to go in our devotion to Jesus Christ?
