  • Brought To Life; Brought Together

    We are starting our series in Paul’s letter to Ephesians so turn to Ephesians 1:1-2. Today I want to introduce the author, the recipients, his prayer in writing, and then give a summary of the letter.

    The Author: The Source of His Authority (1a) The letter opens with Paul identifying himself as the author. In those days, the author did this at the beginning of letters rather than the end as we do. He writes as one with authority to instruct the church and this authority qualifies him to write. ...read more

    Encourage people to not be argumentative through your own fine example. Paul writes, "Since we live by the Spirit, let us keep in step with the Spirit. Let us not become conceited, provoking and envying each other.

    What are some of the best ways to relate to carnal Christians? 1.

    Adoption during the writings of Paul meant something totally different then it does today. Adoption signifies that you are legally a child of God. You are a full fledged member of the family. A joint heir with Christ. Updated July 2023.

     | 13,031 views

    We can grow casual about God's Grace, and we can think we can earn it. Grace is examined by looking at the Christians in Corinth and in Galatia, and examining their differences and similarities in how Paul writes to them.

    I’ve Grown Accustomed to His Grace Dr. R.C. Sproul, a famous radio preacher, was assigned an Old Testament class of 250 freshmen. In his syllabus he clearly set forth the course requirements. There would be three small papers due by noon on September 30, October 30 and November 30. They were ...read more

  • Letting The Gospel Shine Series

     | 3,763 views

    1st Corinthians 11 is one of the most controversial and misunderstood sections of Paul's writings. We'll explore it using culture, context, character, and language to find out what Paul is and is not saying to the Corinthians and to us today.

    The first thing to know about this section is that it is not about marriage or the role of women in the church. It is about having respect in worship for each other within our culture. Just prior, Paul was telling us to have respect for the conscience of others who are weak in terms of the freedoms ...read more

    Ordinary Proper 13 - Just as Augustine writes about the perils of the journey on the way to the City of God - the Israelites also took their eyes off the prize. But God accompanied them and fed them - just as He does for us.

    Augustine of Hippo – or simply, St. Augustine – is one of the great thinkers with which the Church has been blessed. His influence on Christian thought has been profound. Since Martin Luther was first an Augustinian monk – St. Augustine’s influence even touches us today as 21st century ...read more
