As soon as we start following Jesus and trying to live as new people, we discover that we’re in a fight against the pull of the culture and the desires of our own hearts. What's wrong with following those old desires, what does it look like to fight against them, and is there hope we can win? Join us as we learn how to "Fight the Dark Side" from Ephesians 4:17-24.
Special Guest: Nick Carter.

How does God fill us? This and more on this week's podcast discussing Ephesians 3:14-21
As Paul concludes the first half of his letter, he’s moved with awe by the thought of all that God is and has for us in Christ. That wonder is expressed in prayer that we would know and be filled more and more with the love of Christ. Join us as we look at "Filled with God's Fulness" from Ephesians 3:14-21
What are the powers in the heavenly places? We discuss this and more as we cover Ephesians 3:7-13.

What's the secret to becoming a part of God's Kingdom? We discuss this on this weeks episode covering Ephesians 3:1-6.
We all love finding a hidden restaurant, a great deal, a good book that has made our lives fuller. We want to share our discovery with others. Paul talks about the “divine secret” or mystery of God’s salvation, and he describes how God uses us to bring others into the amazing reality we’ve discovered in Jesus. Join us this Sunday as we look at "The Secret" from Ephesians 3:1-6.
Western Christians mostly see salvation in individual terms, what God has done for me. Much of that is true in the first chapter and a half of Ephesians, but God's saving grace is much broader, going beyond the individual to the church. It includes God's work to "unite all things in him," (1:10) and to "create in Himself one new man in place of the two." (2:15). This is the church, the gathering of God's people from all over the world into one body, starting by breaking down the wall between Jew and Gentile. What other walls is God breaking down? Are we embracing God's purpose or fighting against it? Join us for a closer look at Ephesians 2:11-22, One People, United in Christ.
How are we unified even though sometimes we believe different things? We discuss this on the podcast covering Ephesians 2:11-22.
What is required of us for service at Faith Church? We discuss this and more as we look at Ephesians 2:5-10.
If our salvation - from beginning to end - is all based on God’s grace, how does that change me? What does it mean for the way I see myself? My identity and my purpose in life? Join us as we look at "God's Workmanship" from Ephesians 2:5-10.
Is the soul., spirit and flesh separate in the human life? We discuss this and more while we focus on Ephesians 2:1-6.
We all have some idea of what grace is – a free gift. But we can all think of gifts we received that weren't that meaningful or important. What does the grace of God really look like? Why do I need it? And what does it do in my heart and my life? How does grace change me? Join us as we look at "Made Alive" from Ephesians 2:1-6
What does gritty mean? Find out on this week's podcast covering Ephesians 1:15-23.
God opens the eyes of our hearts to see and treasure the riches of his grace - lasting hope, eternal significance, limitless power to be and do all we were created for, and meaningful community in the church.
