We don’t have to be in the church very long to find out that there’s often conflict in it. Conflict is often caused by those who are not spiritually mature in Christ. So, the best way to avoid causing conflict in the church is becoming as Christlike as possible. If every believer was like Christ, conflict in the church would dissipate and unity would abound! Join our study in Ephesians 4:1-16 for helpful insights about growing in unity in the church as we grow in the character of Christ.

There are times when people seek God and desperately want to hear from Him, but what would it look like to adopt this as a lifestyle? Join us in our study of the word of God to learn more about being in the right place and posture to hear from and obey God.

We all love stories of people overcoming through their inner strength. But in real life, we often lack the power to change on our own, We need power from outside, power from God to help. Ephesians 3:14-21 shows us how believers have the blessing of power through Christ. God has power available for every believer to truly change, to break free from old destructive habits and to overcome.

The Texas Hill Country flooding has devastated those who lost their homes and loved ones. And calamities continue to strike others around the globe, from wars to wildfires to airliners crashing out of the sky. And we all face calamities in our personal lives as well. Why does God allow these things to happen? What do we do when these troubles come? Psalm 77:1-20 gives us insight for coping when calamity strikes, drawn from the life of a believer who faced his own heart crushing troubles.

It’s common for people outside the church to have confusion over what the gospel is. But it’s also common for people inside the church to have confusion over it too, even in churches that apply that term in their ministries. That’s unfortunate because the gospel is the beginning, middle and end of the Christian life. The gospel reorients us to God and it reorients everything in our life, especially how those in Christ participate in the church. Join our study in Ephesians 3:1-13 to learn about the blessing of the gospel and how it changes our lives in relation to the church.
