How Do We Grow in Our Faith?

Scripture Text: Ephesians 4:17-5:20

This Sunday we continue in Ephesians – the message changes focus to what each of us needs to do – as Christians.  How do we grow in our faith?  Paul has direct and convicting versus – and very disappointingly we find out that there is no EASY BUTTON we can use.  We’ll unpack that idea on Sunday.

The Grace of Beginning Again

This Ash Wednesday, come hear a message that focuses on repentance as a hopeful turning – a sacred opportunity to begin again under God’s Grace as we are confronted with human limits yet reassures us of Divine love. Let us remember who we are, fragile yet cherished. Let us draw from Joel’s call to return to God and listen with honest reflection and wholehearted repentance as we learn that God desires transformation more than ritual.

But Paul shows us that behind all our problems there's really only one problem—and in Ephesians 3:14-21 he prays for the solution.

The Process of Personal Reconciliation to God

Scripture Text: Ephesians 2:1-10

Many of us understand grace as a theological position. And it is delightfully that. Undeserved, Unending, Unearned, Unwavering grace is God's inexhaustible love and absolute acceptance of us, coupled with his unabashed delight in us. Grace brings us adoption into God's family, a new identity, a new life, new power, new capacity, and God's full protection - with absolutely no strings attached! But grace is much more than a theological position. Equally and simultaneously, grace is an actual environment, an atmosphere, a realm, a present-tense reality that weaves around and through every moment of even our worst day. ...
