Ephesians Gospel Shaped

Ephesians | Gospel Shaped People

Paul wrote to the Ephesian church to encourage them in their faith and in the practical outworking of the faith in everyday life. 

 

Chapters 1-3 unfold the richness of the gospel by revealing the beauty of what Christ has done and who we are in Christ, His new humanity. And chapters 4-6 apply what it looks like to imitate the very character of God in every area of our lives in response to the gospel, as a new humanity.

  • Building The Body Of Christ | Promontory Campus | Ephesians: Gospel Shaped People

    Ephesians 4:11-16

    God has empowered each Christian to build up the church in unity and maturity.   While God has given each of us different gifts, we have the same goal of seeing the church built up to be more like Christ.  Let us use our gifts well so that the glory of Christ is seen in our church.

  • The Call to Christian Maturity | Harrison Campus | Ephesians: Gospel Shaped People

    Ephesians 4:11-16

    Have you ever witnessed an adult act in a very immature way? While such behavior is tolerable for a child, the expectation is that as one grows older they grow both physically and in maturity. The same goes for our faith. Jesus desires believers to grow in their faith and become mature Christians, which happens when Christians use their God-given gifts in the context of the local church body

  • Equipped for Ministry | Agassiz Campus | Ephesians: Gospel Shaped People

    Ephesians 4:11-16

    Paul emphasizes that Christ has provided everything we need to grow our faith: we have been equipped for ministry, called to maturity, and designed to be built up in love. Our role is to use what we’ve been given to serve and care for those around us, actively contributing to the growth of the Body of Christ. As we do this, our faith naturally matures, and the church builds itself up in love.

  • Church's Gift to the Church | Chilliwack Campus | Ephesians: Gospel Shaped People

    Ephesians 4:11-16

    Christ did not simply save His people, as unfathomably amazing as that is. He also sent them as gifts to the church to help the church grow into the image of Christ and bring about the stability that comes with a deep unwavering understanding of who Christ is and what he has accomplished.

  • 1 x 7 | Harrison Campus | Ephesians: Gospel Shaped People

    Ephesians 4:1-10

    One of Jesus’ last prayers before his death was that God the Father would make his disciples “one”. Why was the unity of his followers so important to Jesus? In Ephesians 4:1-10, the Apostle Paul exhorts all believers to live out this oneness, teaching us that it is grounded in the victory of Jesus over sin, death, and Satan. To live out this oneness means we must deny ourselves - but it is worth it because our oneness builds up believers, convinces unbelievers of the truth of the Gospel, and ultimately glorifies God.

  • Something More to Unity! | Promontory Campus | Ephesians: Gospel Shaped People

    Ephesians 4:1 - 10

  • A Call to Gospel Unity | Agassiz Campus | Ephesians: Gospel Shaped People

    Ephesians 4:1-10

    As we continue our series in Ephesians, we explore the profound unity that Christ has secured for His church, contrasting it with the disunity we see in the world. We examine how worldly unity is often shallow and self-serving, while the unity of the Gospel is sacrificial in nature, and rooted in Christ’s work on the cross. Through humility, gentleness, patience, and love, we are called to embody and live out this unity reflecting the power of the Gospel and the reconciliation it brings.

  • Easter Sunday: United With Christ | Promontory Campus | Vice & Virtue

    Romans 6:3-5

    The death and resurrection of Jesus is the most significant thing that has ever happened on earth.  We cannot remain neutral to what has happened, and the good news is that Jesus invites us to come to him for the forgiveness of our sins and our new life in him.  If we are united in his death, we will be united in his life. 

  • Easter Sunday: Wanted: Dead AND Alive | Agassiz & Lake Errock Campuses | Vice & Virtue
