This week, Anchor South West Lead Pastor Arnaldo Santiago Jr. will be walking us through Ephesians 6:1–9. 

As Paul unpacks a new household code, he will use the form but subvert it to serve the purposes of the kingdom of God. Rather than call on husbands, fathers, and masters to use their position of social power for themselves, they are commanded to a mutual love that seeks to serve rather than be served.

A Spirit-filled marriage is one of mutual submission and wholly giving of yourself to the other, as a picture of the grand narrative of Jesus and his bride (the church). 

The Christian life is about imitating. As we keep company with Jesus we learn a life of love. This sermon explores what it means to walk in love, walk in the light, walk in wisdom and walk in step with the Spirit.

Fundamental change happens to us when the sense of who we are is revolutionised. Behaviour follows our sense of identity. Listen as we unpack and understand what our new identity in Jesus means. Ephesians 4:17-32

Inspired by Tim Chester's book, Enjoying God, we discover that God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit, are relating to us day-by-day, moment-by-moment, far more than we perhaps realise. One way God the Father relates to us, showing us that he loves us, is by generously providing for us. And one way we can respond and enjoy him more is by saying Thank You.

In Ephesians 4, Paul turns from theology to practice, introducing us to the concept of spiritual fitness. The people of God are joined together as a body. Our goal is body building. The church is our spiritual gym.

On Pentecost Sunday we look at the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering the church to fulfil the mission Jesus had given them. If we want to be a true movement of church-planting churches, we need to be a Spirit-filled, Spirit-empowered church.

We live in a hyper-individualised world. This is no surprise; but the way in which this posture in the world has affected the church has been nothing short of disastrous.

This week's message is about Paul's prayer for power to comprehend the love of Christ toward his people. But this needs to be understood in its communal context.

Listen in as Arnaldo Santiago jr. walks us through Ephesians 3:14–21, teaching us that there are dimensions of God's love that we cannot experience apart from deep communion with others.

The cross of Christ doesn't just deal with the vertical but the horizontal. It obliterates not just the alienation between us and God, but the alienation between us and us.

The cross of Christ creates a new reality in which we are invited to participate—a new humanity, a new 'us'. Anchor South West Lead Pastor, Arnaldo Santiago Jr., explores the ways the cross overcomes the deep hostility of both the ancient and the modern world.
