Finishing up the series on Ephesians, we look at the armor of God and see how this book is still all about Jesus.

This week we look at Paul's instructions for the various relationships we have, asking what power looks like when it's used to serve rather than be served.

Paul continues his instruction on what sanctification looks like in our lives. We explore a danger that can happen as we progress in sanctification: thinking that Christianity is about performing. What if, instead, it is about being formed?

What does it mean to "put off the old self" and "put on the new?" And what does any of it have to do with kudzu or Eustace Clarence Scrubb?

Paul says that God gave each individual in the Church a gift. What's yours, and what does it look like to use it for the building up of the body of Christ?

A shorter sermon this week, as we got to meet our incoming interns at Large Group! We're jumping into the 2nd half, where Paul brings his theological reflection crashing into our day-to-day lives. What does it mean that we are "one body?"

We believe that we are saved by grace through faith, but our thoughts, actions, and fears betray that we think we're loved when we're good. What does it look like to continue in the Christian life reliant on the grace that begins it?

Eph 2:11-3:6 - This week we look at the communal aspects of the salvation accomplished for us by Christ. What does it mean that we've been united to one another? What does it mean that we don't always experience it right now?

What does it look like to have a full picture of the Christian life? What happens when we leave out one leg of the stool? How do we get off balance?

This week we continue looking at Ephesians 1, seeing the heart of Paul's prayer for that church. What is it that we most need?
