Faith Church Indy

We all love finding a hidden restaurant, a great deal, a good book that has made our lives fuller. We want to share our discovery with others. Paul talks about the “divine secret” or mystery of God’s salvation, and he describes how God uses us to bring others into the amazing reality we’ve discovered in Jesus. Join us this Sunday as we look at "The Secret" from Ephesians 3:1-6.

Western Christians mostly see salvation in individual terms, what God has done for me. Much of that is true in the first chapter and a half of Ephesians, but God's saving grace is much broader, going beyond the individual to the church. It includes God's work to "unite all things in him," (1:10) and to "create in Himself one new man in place of the two." (2:15). This is the church, the gather...

How are we unified even though sometimes we believe different things? We discuss this on the podcast covering Ephesians 2:11-22.

What is required of us for service at Faith Church? We discuss this and more as we look at Ephesians 2:5-10.

If our salvation - from beginning to end - is all based on God’s grace, how does that change me? What does it mean for the way I see myself? My identity and my purpose in life? Join us as we look at "God's Workmanship" from Ephesians 2:5-10.

Is the soul., spirit and flesh separate in the human life? We discuss this and more while we focus on Ephesians 2:1-6.

We all have some idea of what grace is – a free gift. But we can all think of gifts we received that weren't that meaningful or important. What does the grace of God really look like? Why do I need it? And what does it do in my heart and my life? How does grace change me? Join us as we look at "Made Alive" from Ephesians 2:1-6

What does gritty mean? Find out on this week's podcast covering Ephesians 1:15-23.

God opens the eyes of our hearts to see and treasure the riches of his grace - lasting hope, eternal significance, limitless power to be and do all we were created for, and meaningful community in the church. Special Guest: Joel Bussell.

Two is Better Than One

What is predestination and how does it work? This topic discussed in this weeks podcast on Ephesians 1:3-14.

All of us struggle with doubts and fears – about ourselves, about relationships, about the future, about this world, even about God and his promises. How do we find security, hope, and direction for our lives? Join us as we look at "The Father's Love" from Ephesians 1:3-14

ANEW?!

We’re tempted to think that when life is going well and we have good things, God is happy with us and we’re blessed; and if life is hard, we think we’ve done something wrong and God is withholding his blessing. Is that how God operates? Join us as we start a new series in the book of Ephesians and look at what it means to be “Blessed” from Ephesians 1:1-3.

We start the new series of Ephesians this week focsed on the blessings covered in Ephesians 1:1-3.

A Light at the End of the Tunnerl -- and This Time It's Not Another Train

We Believe. This is an intentional time to grow in our faith and to grow in relationship with one another across generations. We will explore the Christian creeds and confessions, where they originated, and why they’re central to our faith. Special Guest: Nick Carter.

We wrap up our series in Acts as we discuss Acts 28:30-31.

The Loss that Kept on Grieving

We finally come to the end of Acts and Paul has made it to Rome - but he's under house arrest. It seems less glamorous, less glorious than we would expect; a bit unfinished. What does this say to us about the ongoing mission of the church and our part in it? Join us as we look at "The End and the Beginning" from Acts 28:30-31.

Why did Paul go to the Jews first, when he has been so focused on getting to Rome to share with Ceasar? We discuss this in this week's podcast talking about Acts 28:17-28.

Paul finally gets to Rome and once again reaches out to his fellow Jews, showing from the Scriptures how Jesus is the promised Messiah. He goes out of his way to demonstrate love and forbearance. But once again, he gets a mixed reaction. What do we learn from Paul's example for out witness as followers of Jesus? Join us as we look at "The Kingdom" from Acts 28:17-28.

Finding God's Direction in His Faithful Witnesses

What do Paul and Jonah have in common? We discuss this and more as we look at Acts 28:7-16.

At long last, Paul gets to Rome. But it seems a little...anticlimactic? There was a wild ride by sea, a shipwreck, a dangerous landing, and a deadly snake bite. Then God heals people through Paul, and his journey ends with a calm voyage, a friendly meeting with some believers, and a comfortable house arrest. How do we make sense of these sudden changes? What's going on behind the scenes? And how d...
