  • The Best Model for Church Growth (Ephesians 4:13)

    26/08/2022 Duration: 47min

    In Ephesians 4:13, Paul provides the best church growth model in history, which was provided by God. Namely, Jesus Christ. Ephesians 4:13 provides the three dimensions of this church growth model, the width of unity, the depth of maturity, and the height of Christ-likeness.

  • Who Does the Work of the Ministry in the Church? (Ephesians 4:12)

    19/08/2022 Duration: 42min

    When you think of the work of the ministry in the church, what do you think of? Most people think of the work that pastors and missionaries do. But in Ephesians 4:12, Paul shows us that the work of the ministry is not done by church leaders, but rather by the people of the church. In this study of Ephesians 4:12, you will learn how you can get involved in the work of the ministry.

  • Church Leaders Who Help Church Growth (Ephesians 4:11)

    24/03/2022 Duration: 52min

    If you want the church to grow, it is important to know the four spiritual gifts that God has provided to guide the church into proper church growth. Paul reveals these four roles in Ephesians 4:11, and this study explains what these four roles are and how they work to lead the church into church growth.

  • Rejoice in Your Differences! (Ephesians 4:7-10)

    17/03/2022 Duration: 26min

    Do you want church unity? In Ephesians 4, Paul tells us how. Here is what Paul is saying about how to develop unity in the church: Ephesians 4:1-3: Check your own attitude first. Ephesians 4:4-6: Focus on all the things you have in common. Ephesians 4:7-10: And regarding the things you do NOT have in common, praise Jesus for those, because He made you all different by giving you different gifts.

  • Seven Elements of Christian Unity (Ephesians 4:4-6)

    03/03/2022 Duration: 26min

    In Ephesians 1-3, Paul explained that God has given us great spiritual riches so that we can lead the world into peace. In the first part of Ephesians 4, Paul tells us Christians that the first way we can show the world how to live in peace is by living in peace with one other. This begins, as we learned in the last study, by looking to our own heart first and developing certain attitudes of the heart. In this study, we learn that as we seek to live in peace with other Christians, we should focus on seven key truths that all Christians have in common. When we focus on what we have in common rather than on on what divides us, we will begin to create peace in our midst.

  • The Church Must Lead the World into Peace (Ephesians 4:1-3)

    17/02/2022 Duration: 45min

    Everyone wants unity, but nobody really knows how to achieve it. Most people today seem to think that unity requires conformity. We think that unity is achieved when everybody thinks the same way, talks the same way, dresses the same way, and has the same opinions. Where differences occur, division results, and unity dies. And some people seek to achieve unity by silencing and cancelling those who have different opinions. You see, when we are in a conflict with someone, we think it is the responsibility of the other person to change their ways, so we can get along with them. We point at their faults and what they said, or what they did, and say that if there is going to be peace, they have to change. Paul challenges all of this in Ephesians 4:1-3. In these verses, Paul shows how we can have unity with others even when there is disagreement.

  • To Love Your Enemies, Know You are Loved (Ephesians 3:18-21)

    16/12/2021 Duration: 32min

    Have you ever tried to actually love your enemies? It's next to impossible, isn't it? In Ephesians 3:18-21, Paul provides two ways that we can learn to love our enemies. These seem impossible as well, until we understand what Paul is actually saying about how to love our enemies.

  • Is it Impossible to love our enemies? (Ephesians 3:14-17)

    02/12/2021 Duration: 32min

    In Ephesians, Paul has instructed his readers to live at peace with people they used to hate, and to begin loving their enemies instead. This is much easier said than done, so in Ephesians 3, Paul shows how he himself is doing this, and how his readers can follow in his example in loving their enemies, just as Jesus did. This is what we begin to learn in Ephesians 3:14-17.

  • How to Fix the World (Ephesians 3:8-13)

    18/11/2021 Duration: 38min

    Are you happy with the current state of the world? Do you wish things could change? Do you want the world to improve? Do you want to fix the world? In this study of Ephesians 3:8-13, we discover Paul's solution for how to fix the world. It's a shocking, challenging proposal, but it is the plan that God has put in place since the beginning of time, and it is the only plan that God has. There is no Plan B.

  • A Prisoner for Peace (Ephesians 3:1-7)

    11/11/2021 Duration: 32min

    In Ephesians 2, Paul encouraged his readers to live in peace with people they used to hate. Since this is much easier said than done, Paul begins Ephesians 3 by showing how he himself is living in peace with those who used to be his enemies. Indeed, Paul is prison as a result of his stand for peace, but Paul knows that this will only serve to prove the truth of what he is teaching. Paul leads by example, just as we, the church, are to be an example to the world. This is what we begin to learn in this study of Ephesians 3:1-7.

  • How Homeless Aliens Change the World (Ephesians 2:18-22)

    28/10/2021 Duration: 40min

    Strife, division, and hostility are not new in our day. They have been present since the beginning of the world when Cain killed Abel, or even before that when Adam blamed Eve for why he ate the forbidden fruit. Blame, accusation, violence, and death are the foundational characteristics of our culture. But it does not need to be that way, and this is not what God wants. God calls us to live differently in this world, and Jesus showed us how this could be done. In Ephesians 2, Paul explains how Jesus showed this to us and how we should live in light of what Jesus showed us. Ephesians 2:18-22 is the final section in Ephesians 2 which shows us how God brings peace and unity to this world through the church. If we want peace and unity in this world, then it begins by living in peace and unity with other members of the family of God. Ephesians 2:18-22 shows us how this happens.

  • Vaccination Discrimination and Ephesians 2:13-17

    22/10/2021 Duration: 01h03min

    Vaccinated or unvaccinated? Surprisingly, Ephesians 2:13-17 speaks to the issue. Sort of. In this study of Ephesians 2:13-17, we begin with a question from a reader about COVID vaccinations, and then turn to our ongoing study of Ephesians, where we discover that Jesus actually revealed to us what to do with people who have different views than we do, whether they are religious, political, social, or cultural differences, or even whether they are views about vaccination status.

  • The Things that Divide Us (Ephesians 2:11-12)

    30/09/2021 Duration: 38min

    There were six things that caused division and strife between Jews and Gentiles. Paul discusses these in Ephesians 2:11-12. These same six things are found in various ways today in our culture and country. As we learn how Paul wanted the Ephesian Christians to respond to these sources of division, we can learn to live at peace with others today as well. All of this is covered in this study of Ephesians 2:11-12. 

  • Created for Good Works (Ephesians 2:10)

    02/09/2021 Duration: 31min

    Did you know God has prepared good works for you to do? In this study of Ephesians 2:10, we look at what these good works are, when God prepared them for you, and how this explanation of Ephesians 2:10 fits within the overall message of Ephesians 2. Prior to that, we will also answer a question from a reader about baptism in the Bible.

  • By Grace are you Saved Through Faith (Ephesians 2:8-9)

    26/08/2021 Duration: 27min

    I firmly believe that the Bible teaches that we receive eternal life by grace alone through faith alone in Jesus Christ alone. But is that what Paul is teaching in Ephesians 2:8-9 when he writes, "For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast"? Though many Christians think so, I do not. This study of Ephesians 2:8-9 will explain what I think Paul is really talking about in these verses.

  • What is Salvation in Ephesians 2:5-7?

    20/08/2021 Duration: 40min

    As we continue our study of Ephesians, this study considers Ephesians 2:5-7 and the meaning of the word "salvation." We see that a misunderstanding of the word "salvation" leads to a misunderstanding of the entire chapter of Ephesians 2. But when we properly understand what "salvation" means in context, we can then better understanding the whole of Ephesians 2.

  • The Biggest “But” in the Bible (Ephesians 2:4)

    22/07/2021 Duration: 35min

    Trivia time! What's the biggest but in the Bible? We will discover the answer to that question today in our study of Ephesians 2:4. I will also answer a quick question from a reader about the topic of Calvinism.

  • Sin Leads to Wrath (Ephesians 2:3)

    16/07/2021 Duration: 41min

    Ephesians 2:1-3 explains the greatest problem humanity faces on this earth. Ephesians 2:3 reveals the root cause of this problem, and how it leads to the destruction of humanity. This podcast study explains all of this from Ephesians 2:2. Before that, however, we look at a question from a reader about Critical Race Theory.

  • The Subjects of Satan (Ephesians 2:2)

    08/07/2021 Duration: 36min

    Do you understand what is going on in the world? You would, if you understand the real problem with humanity. Ephesians 2:2 begins to show us what this problem is. The verse contains three phrases that point to one single reality as the identity of our problem. Before we get to our study of Ephesians 2:2, however, we will be answering a question from a reader about hell and ultimate reconciliation.
