Ephesians 6:5-9 -The Lords Servant- Pastor Rick Beaudry 2026-05-24

Pastor Rick Beaudry preaches from Ephesians 6:5-9, urging servants to serve with humility, wholeheartedness, honor, and hope; doing all work as unto the Lord and following Jesus’ example of servant leadership. He contrasts first-century Roman slavery with modern abuses, warns against pride and quitting, and exhorts us to be faithful in small things so God can open doors. Masters are called to be fair, friendly, and forgiving, treating employees as brothers and remembering their own Master in heaven. The message closes with prayer, a reminder of Christ’s sacrificial example, and an invitation to turn to Jesus.

Ephesians 6:4 -Fathers- Pastor Rick Beaudry 2026-05-17

Pastor Rick Beaudry preaches from Ephesians 6:4, calling fathers to not provoke their children but to raise them "in the nurture and admonition of the Lord," seeing fatherhood as both a priceless privilege and a sober responsibility. He outlines four fatherly duties: use restraint (be fair, avoid provoking or breaking a child’s spirit), use your riches (time, talent and provision to nourish body and soul), use the rod (biblical discipline and chasten with love), and use your relationship (model faith, read Scripture, pray and live authentically). Through personal stories about his father, children and grandkids he warns against favoritism, indulgence, hypocrisy and absentee or “deadbeat” parenting, and emphasizes reliance on the Holy Spirit and God’s corrective love. He urges us to repent where we’ve failed, invest actively in our kids’ spiritual lives, and trust God to finish the work He’s begun.

Ephesians 6:1,3 -Spirit Filled Children- Pastor Rick Beaudry 2026-05-10

Pastor Rick Beaudry examines Ephesians 6:1–3, urging children to obey and honor their parents as an outworking of relationship with God, the right moral response, and a command with a promised blessing. He emphasizes the necessity of being "being filled with the Holy Spirit" so families (husbands, wives, fathers and children) can model Christ, resist cultural confusion and spiritual deception, and raise bold, obedient disciples. Using biblical examples (Joseph, Jacob, Daniel), personal stories and pastoral counsel, he addresses practical parenting, discipline, prayer for prodigals, and the long-term spiritual stakes of rebellion. He warns about worldly influences from schools and media to state overreach and calls us to cultivate spirit‑filled homes that prioritize Jesus above cultural pressure.

Ephesians 5:25,33 -Spirit Filled Husbands- Pastor Rick Beaudry 2026-05-03

Pastor Rick Beaudry expounds Ephesians 5:25–33, calling husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the church and urging Spirit‑filled marriages that reflect Christ and the bride. He unpacks agape love with four characteristics: costly (sacrificial), cleansing (sanctifying by the Word), caring (nourishing and cherishing), and cleaving (lifelong oneness). Beaudry uses personal anecdotes about his wife Kathy and family to illustrate practical application. He warns against worldly influences, power struggles, and the erosion of marriage when the vertical (relationship with God) is neglected, pressing men to protect, serve, and lead their homes through Scripture and prayer. He balances a call to mutual submission and reverence with pastoral caution on unrepentant sin and divorce, urging us to trust Jesus as the ultimate fulfillment of the God‑shaped longing marriage symbolizes.

Ephesians 5:22,24 -Spirit Filled Wives- Pastor Rick Beaudry 2026-04-26

Pastor Rick Beaudry reads Ephesians 5:22–24 and teaches that spirit-filled wives submit to their husbands out of reverence for the Lord, enabled by the Holy Spirit. He outlines three reasons for this submission: reverence for Christ, a wife’s relationship with Christ (with the husband pictured as head as Christ is head of the church), and her responsibility before the Lord, while emphasizing mutual submission and the husband’s call to love sacrificially. Rick cautions that submission is not blind obedience. Wives must obey God rather than a husband who demands sin or abuses, and that the Spirit alone overcomes the Fall’s power struggles. Through candid personal stories about his marriage to Kathy, he urges us to trust Jesus, prioritize the spiritual life, and let the Holy Spirit transform our families.
