Join us as we explore the message of Ephesians 3:1–13, where the Apostle Paul unveils the divine mystery now revealed through Christ. Once hidden for generations, this mystery - that the Gentiles are fellow heirs, members of the same body, and partakers of the promise in Christ Jesus through the Gospel - transforms how we understand God’s grace, unity, and purpose for His Church. In this message, we reflect on Paul’s calling as a servant of the Gospel and the unsearchable riches of Christ that reach every nation and every heart. We’ll be reminded that God’s eternal plan is to bring all people together in Christ and to display His manifold wisdom through the Church - even amid trials and suffering.

Paul reminds us that we were once far from God - separated, without hope, living in hostility towards one another. But through Jesus, those barriers have been torn down. Christ Himself is our peace, reconciling us to God and breaking down the barriers that divide people. This passage reveals the power of the gospel to unite people from every background, making us fellow citizens and members of God’s household. Once outsiders, we are now built together as a dwelling place for God’s own Spirit.
We were once lifeless, broken, and lost in our sins - but God, rich in mercy and overflowing with love, has made us alive with Christ. In Ephesians 2:1–10, Paul reminds us that salvation is not something we earn, but a gift of amazing grace. Through the cross and by the power of the Holy Spirit, we are raised to new life and seated with Christ in heavenly places. This message invites us to see ourselves as God sees us: redeemed, restored, and created for good works prepared in advance. God’s desire is to transform us through His presence and reawaken us to the joy of being fully alive in Jesus.
Like the church in first century Ephesus, we are surrounded by false gods, false powers and their false gospels and false promises. Paul prays for their greatest need as they hold fast to Christ - that they may know his hope, his inheritance and his power.
What if our view of the future reshaped how we live today? In Ephesians 1:11–14, Paul reminds us that we have been given an unshakable inheritance in Christ. Twinned with the fact that we ourselves are God’s own treasured inheritance this shapes our understanding of who we are in God. When we grasp both of these truths, our priorities, confidence, and identity begin to change. This message explores how knowing what’s ours in Christ changes the way we walk through life, and how knowing we belong to Him transforms the way we see ourselves.
Paul starts his letter to the Ephesians by pouring out a cascade of praise to God, to the only living God who is real. He speaks of 'every blessing' we have in Christ and then gives a number of examples that cover the whole of time, past and future. He could give more. These are spiritual blessings in contrast to material ones. But they are the ones that really matter, what a passage to get your heart racing.
As we step into the work God has called us to - planting, gathering, and starting an Evening Meeting, we recognize the mixture of excitement and vulnerability this causes. In Hebrews 10:19–25, we’re reminded of the unshakable foundation we have in Christ: through His blood we have confidence to draw near to God, to hold fast the hope of the gospel, and to stir one another up to love and good works. This passage calls us not only to look to Jesus with assurance, but also to walk together with faith and encouragement as His people. As we reflect on God’s vision for our church family let’s seek His strength to press on together.
In the opening words of Ephesians, Paul writes with striking clarity and deep confidence: he is an apostle by the will of God. In the same breath, he reminds us who we are - saints in Christ Jesus. This short greeting carries a powerful truth: our identity and calling are not built on uncertainty, but on God’s will, God’s grace, and God’s power. In this message, we’ll explore how this certainty shapes our own walk with Christ, giving us confidence to live as His people today.
Acts 2:47 gives us a simple pattern: a community devoted to one another, praising God with gladhearts, and experiencing daily growth as the Lord saved people. That same call is ours today: to live as a people of love, to lift up the name of Jesus in every setting, and to expect God to bring salvation through His power.
A close look at Acts 2.46 shows that Luke used special vocabulary often hidden in the English translation that conveys how the early Christians were devoted to forming the same passion. Particular attention is given to the breaking of bread and the sharing of food. Luke's summary can be read as a critical commentary on our own community and the way we form and share our passion for Christ with one another.
The early church held on to their possessions very lightly so they could give to all who had need. How did Jesus model this, and how can we do the same?
Acts 2:43 reminds us that “everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles.” From the earliest days of the church, God confirmed His Word with visible demonstrations of His power. As we journey through the book of Acts, we see God on the move - miracle after miracle: healings, deliverances, bold proclamations, and supernatural guidance. These aren’t just ancient stories; they reveal the unchanging heart of God, who still longs to move in power today. The same Spirit who worked then is still at work now – we pray for a move of God in Birmingham!
King’s Church wants to be a church that prays persistently, corporately and personally to build rhythms of prayer to fuel our spiritual lives, cultivate intimacy with the Father to transform our lives, our church, our communities, our city, our country, and our world. We do this by seeking God and his will for our lives.
When we break bread we remember Jesus’s death, we participate in the benefits his death has won for us, and we proclaim to the watching world and spiritual powers that Jesus’s death has saved us and united us until the day we feast with him in glory.
The early church’s commitment to fellowship was marked by daily gatherings, sacrificial generosity, genuine friendship, and contagious joy. In doing so, they fulfilled Jesus’ command to His disciples to “love one another.” This vibrant community life reflects God’s vision for His church. This message calls us to build and nurture loving relationships with fellow believers, while remaining faithful in our commitment to church gatherings.
In the early church, devotion to the apostles' teaching wasn't just about Sunday sermons - it was a way of life rooted in obedience to God's word. In this message, we explore how Scripture reveals Jesus, transforms hearts, and equips us to live lives of faith and obedience. As a church, we are invited to be shaped daily by the living Word of God.
In John 15:12-17 Jesus says that he calls us friends! Discover what friendship means with God, the joy it can bring us and how we can go deeper with Jesus. Through this we see the picture of and motivation for all earthly friendships
What can we learn from Jonathan and David's friendship? This message looks at practical things we can do to be more available, committed, loyal, vulnerable and forgiving in our friendships today.
In Psalm 68:5-6a we see God’s Father heart for the lonely and vulnerable. Like Him, we are relational and designed for connection and friendship. God brings us into His family, to know Him as Father through Jesus the Son, and into this church family, to know and love one another. It takes courage and vulnerability to own our own needs and to reach out to help meet others’. The good news is that we can do it from a place of security in the Father’s love – and enjoy much fruit!
In Genesis 2:18–25, God declares that it is not good for man to be alone, showing us that as human beings we’re created for companionship. As a God who exists in eternal relationship - Father, Son, and Spirit - He designed us to reflect His nature through connection with others. This passage lays the foundation for all human relationships, revealing that friendship and companionship are central to God’s design for human life.
