Ephesians 5: Imitators

The question isn't whether we're imitating someone, but the question is: Who are we imitating? Ephesians 5 calls us to imitate Christ in how we live and make the most of every opportunity by living under the influence of the Holy Spirit. We also chat through Paul's instructions for marriage, examining what it means for wives to respect their husbands through submission and for husbands to love their wives as Christ loved the Church.

Ephesians 4: Live Worthy

Ephesians 4 shifts the focus from what we believe to how we live. Every Christian has a calling to contribute and reflect Christ in the way we speak, serve, and love. We're striving for purpose (not perfection), and stewarding the life God has entrusted to us. Let's live like it matters!

Ephesians 3: Full & Free

God's love isn't ritual, it's relational. Ephesians 3 paints a breathtaking picture of the love of God—a love so wide, long, high, and deep that it fills us completely. God’s love frees us, strengthens us, anchors us, and fills the empty spaces we often try to satisfy with lesser things. When we truly understand His love, we begin to live differently. The prayer of Ephesians 3 is that we would experience the fullness of God—and discover the freedom found in living deeply connected to Him.

Ephesians 2: Alive on Purpose

God knows the worst parts of us and still chooses to love us, pursue us, and bring us to life through Christ. By grace we've been made alive, and now it's time to live like it! We weren’t saved to sit back and consume, but we were created to contribute, to build, and to bring the Kingdom of Heaven to earth through the way we live each day. True satisfaction isn’t found in what we take in—it’s found in walking out the good works God has already prepared for us.

Ephesians 1: Already Yours

We’re kicking off a 6-part series through the book of Ephesians, and it starts with a powerful foundation in chapter 1. Written by Paul to encourage believers, this letter reminds us of who we are in Christ and what we’ve already been given. In this episode, we recognize the spiritual blessings God has poured out, embrace the truth that we’ve been chosen, and learn to pray for wisdom and revelation so we can know Him more deeply (and pray that for others, too). We also introduce the framework of HIPS—Hope, Inheritance, Power, and Strength—a reminder of what belongs to us as followers of Christ. Paul wrote these words to strengthen and encourage his friends. Our prayer is that this conversation does the same for you.
