In Ephesians 4, we are given instruction on how to navigate our anger. In today's message, Pastor Phil explores the idea of anger. There can be a righteous, Christian anger--but even with this, we must respond in ways which glorify God. And for anger which does not glorify God, "all bitterness, rage and anger, brawling and slander," Ephesians 4:31 tells us to get rid of it.

What you think drives what you do. In today's message, Pastor Phil preaches on the command we have from Ephesians chapter 4 to put off the old self, "to be made new in the attitude of your minds" (v.23), and to put on the new self.

In Ephesians 4:11-16, we are given a picture of how God has equipped his servants with various gifts to build up the church so that we would all become mature followers of Jesus. In today's message, Jarrod Swartz preaches on this passage to help our graduating seniors (and all of us) consider the role we play in church, and the way that our brothers and sisters in Christ have supported us, as we all grow to maturity.

In the first 3 chapters of his letter to the Ephesians, Paul reminds us of who we are as the church. In chapters 4-6, Paul will explain how we ought to live as followers of Christ. In today's message, Pastor Phil preaches on Ephesians 4:1-6, and how we should live in humility, patience, gentleness, long-suffering and unity.

In today's message, Caleb Bryant studies Ephesians 3:14-21, and encourages us that as we consider the boundless love of Christ, we should act according to that love--and that to know the love of Christ, we need to study the scriptures.

Ephesians 3 tells us that through the gospel, God uses the church to reveal a mystery which has been kept hidden from the beginning of time. In today's message, Pastor Phil explores this "cosmic sermon," and reminds us that God can work through our hardships, that we need to live on mission, and that we should have a proper view of the significance of the church.
