    Time To Stand Strong, And Draw Your Sword (Ephesians 6:10-20) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 17, 2025
     | 71 views

    Everyone seems to know the unseen spiritual world is real, and interacts with ours. How can we be safe from harmful spirits? And how we can fight for Jesus, against Satan, in this world?

    We live in an age where there is great interest in the unseen spiritual world. There are many TV shows and movies that have to do with battles between humans, and evil spirits. And my guess is that the reason we have so many, and they are so popular, is that we as a society recognize that there ...read more

    At Work And At School, Focus On Jesus (Ephesians 6:5-9) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 16, 2025
     | 46 views

    Our true boss, who we always stay aware of, is Jesus. He's the one we aim to please; his paycheck is the one we seek.

    Today, we wrap up the part of Ephesians that's often called the "household code." We tend to think of the family as being one or two parents, some kids, and a dog. But in first century Rome, the household often included slaves. Many people had at least one or two. Some Roman ...read more

    Children And Parents (Ephesians 6:1-4) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 15, 2025
     | 24 views

    Children obey, and parents (not just fathers) are to instruct in a way that doesn't make their kids angry. Is that even possible? Also: fathers are not the spiritual heads of the house.

    Today, we get to continue our Ephesians study by reading about what Paul has to say to one additional pairing in the typical Roman household. Paul addresses children, and parents. The last two weeks, we focused on husbands and wives. We saw that when Paul addressed husbands and wives, he did ...read more

    Husbands And Wives, Heads And Bodies (Ephesians 5:15-33; 1 Corinthians 11) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 11, 2025
     | 19 views

    A follow up, summarizing, clarifying paper/sermon, addressing "head-body," "submission," and husbands and wives. For those who wanted more.

    A note to my readers: I wrote this in preparation for the past two sermons, (1) as a way of collecting my own thoughts, (2) to make a resource for those who wanted more, (3) to link it to my earlier study of 1 Corinthians 11, and (4) to pull the arguments all together from three separate sermons on ...read more

    Husband, Love Your Wife-Body (Ephesians 5:15-33) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 9, 2025
     | 42 views

    Husband, you love your body. Your wife is your body. Love your wife. We focus on the head; Paul's interested in the head-body metaphor. Love by sacrificing, cherishing, providing.

    Today, we continue our series on Ephesians, and we continue to talk about husbands and wives, Christ and the church. Last week, I focused on wives, because that's where Paul starts. We saw that what it means for a wife to submit to her husband primarily revolves around the idea of treating ...read more

    Wife, Respect Your Husband (Ephesians 5:15-33) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 7, 2025
     | 176 views

    Key points: "submission"= treat with respect; "head" is a metaphor, and doesn't mean "ruler"; husbands love/cherish/sacrifice for their wife-bodies, which is why wives submit.

    Today, we have the privilege of starting to tackle one of the more heated and debated passages and topics in the Bible. It's about how husbands and wives should relate to each other. With respect to this topic, and this passage, there are three main questions that are debated among ...read more

    Be Filled With The Holy Spirit... Submitting To One Another (Ephesians 5:15-24) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Oct 1, 2025
     | 92 views

    Focus is on being filled, and on what it means to "submit to one another"-- we all "put ourselves under" one another.

    Today's verses build directly off last weeks, so I'm going to go ahead and start reading from 5:3. Hopefully, as I read them, you'll find yourself thinking, "Hey, I understand these verses." (3) Now, sexual immorality and all uncleanness or greediness must not even be ...read more

    Spiritual Zombies, Arise! (Ephesians 5:3-14) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 29, 2025
     | 73 views

    When we are saved, we move from death to life. When we go back to our old way of life, we become as a people who are dead, living in the dark. Paul urges, rise from the dead, and let Jesus' light shine on you again.

    This week, we continue our Ephesians study, and we find ourselves picking up midstream in Paul's argument. What we've seen up to this point, is that God is a good and loving God, who acts rightly toward his people, showing them grace and kindness. And God is the process of creating one ...read more

    Jesus Insists We Care For, And Love, One Another (Revelation 3:1-5) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 29, 2025
     | 103 views

    In this church, the missing works, are works of love, service, and faithfulness. Have to conquer apathy, and an uncaring attitude, as well as the big obvious sins like idolatry.

    In small towns, one of the most important things that anyone can have, is a good reputation. A good name. Your reputation is something that you've built over the entirety of your life in this town, as long as you've been here. People think good things about you, or bad, or a mix. There ...read more

    4 Aspects Of The New Way Of Life (Ephesians 4:25-5:2) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 23, 2025
     | 115 views

    Paul gives four examples, illustrative, not exhaustive, of what this new life/shirt/road in Christ looks like. Specifics, of what God is looking for in a worthy walk.

    Over the last couple of weeks, we've seen Paul starting to pull his entire argument in Ephesians together. God is in the process of creating one holy family, who will live in peace with Him and with each other. Or we can say, God is in the process of creating one holy body-- one person-- with ...read more

    Choose The Right Outfit (Ephesians 4:17-24) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 22, 2025
     | 216 views

    Every day, we wake up, and choose whether we will put on our old way of life-- the ratty, stained, lifestyle-- or if we'll put on the new clothing of righteousness. Choose the clean clothing.

    I'd like to start today by giving a quick overview of Paul's letter to the Ephesians, up to this point. At this point in history, God has now revealed his once secret plan for all of his creation. Paul describes this plan using three different metaphors. The first, is that God is ...read more

    Each Of Us Has A Grace-- A Ministry (Ephesians 4:7-15) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 22, 2025
     | 127 views

    We are one body, but we are not all the same. Jesus has set it up so that each of us builds up the church in our own unique way.

    Today we have the privilege of working through some of the most complicated verses in the entire book of Ephesians. Before we dive in though, we should remind ourselves of last time's verses. Are we feeling a little rusty, when it comes to Ephesians? Paul, up to this point in the letter, has ...read more

    Worthily, Walk Of God's Calling (Ephesians 4:1-6) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 22, 2025
     | 283 views

    If God is making one body, one temple, one family who will live in peace with Him and with each other... we need to walk worthily of our calling to live that way.

    Over the past few weeks, we've spent a lot of time talking about God's once-mysterious plan for the entire created order. This plan can be understood in a couple different ways. One, would be that God is creating one family, made up of all different types of people, who live in peace with ...read more

    How Jesus Feels About Idolatry (Revelation 2:12-28) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 22, 2025
     | 79 views

    Jesus views turning to other gods, as being sexually immoral to your Husband. Also, the persecution will one day be reversed, and we will rule with an iron rod, if we overcome/conquer.

    How Jesus feels about idolatry (Revelation 2:12-28) Today, we will tackle two of Jesus' messages, to two of the seven churches. The first one, that I'll use as kind of skeleton and starting point, is to the angel and his church in Pergamum. About half way through, I'll add in the ...read more

    A Prayer For Spirit-Empowerment (Ephesians 3:14-21) Series

    Contributed by Garrett Tyson on Sep 22, 2025
     | 115 views

    God will help his people live faithfully, by empowering them through his Holy Spirit, if they ask. So ask, for yourselves, and for your church. Empowerment isn't just about "charismatic" things. It's empowerment for faithfulness also-- and probably faithfulness first.

    Over the past few weeks, we've read about how God is now revealing to his church something that was a closely guarded secret for centuries. God had this hidden, master plan to bring all things together, in heaven and on earth. And what that looks like on earth, is that God is making one ...read more
