When you read scripture, it doesn’t take long to come across ideas that seem to contradict our natural logic - - things like God’s power being perfected in our weakness or the least will be the greatest in the kingdom of God. In today’s teaching, Francis unpacks Scripture’s counter-cultural wisdom and why it’s better to be at the house of mourning than at the best party.

Many of us were brought up with a mindset that says, “If something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.” But that mentality can also impact the way we read scripture. In this week’s teaching, Francis Chan combats the lies from the enemy that cause us to doubt the promises of God and the glorious inheritance that we have in Christ.

Our Inheritance in Christ (Ephesians Pt. 4) | Francis Chan

If you’re being honest, how much of your life do you prefer to have control? Most of us would probably say a good portion. In this week’s teaching, Francis Chan reminds us of the plan that God put into motion before the foundation of the world and how He chose us to be the objects of His grace.

God Is the Subject (Ephesians Pt. 3) | Francis Chan

Blessed in the Beloved (Ephesians Pt. 2) | Francis Chan

What do you treasure most in life? Where do you find satisfaction? Sometimes in the church, we can enjoy the temporary blessings and lose sight of the joy that’s only found in Jesus. In this week’s episode, Francis Chan begins a series through the book of Ephesians, helping us understand how the love of Christ is meant to dwell richly within us, transforming our lives from the inside out.

Satisfied in Him (Ephesians Pt. 1) | Francis Chan

In our media driven culture, it can be very easy to get caught up in following specific Christian leaders rather than pursuing a deep, personal relationship with Jesus, Himself. In this weeks episode, Francis Chan helps us recognize the distractions of this celebrity-driven mentality and the pitfalls of comparing our faith with others. He challenges us to focus on Jesus, as the Author and Perfecter of our faith, rather than chasing personal glory within the Christian community.
