In this "Verse by Verse", we will dive into the Apostle Paul's words to the church in Ephesus through Ephesians 3:14-21. Paul explains that God desires to strengthen our inner being through His Holy Spirit so that we can grasp how HUGE His love is for us, AND Paul wants us to understand that God is able to do immeasurably more than all that we ask or imagine, according to His power (the Holy Spirit) that is at work within us. Lastly, Paul prays that God will receive glory through the church, His holy people, forever and ever Amen!

In this "Verse by Verse", we will dive into the Apostle Paul's words to the church in Ephesus through Ephesians 3:1-13. Paul explains that the mystery has been revealed that the Gentile believers in Jesus are co-heirs with the Jewish believers in Jesus, AND that the manifold wisdom of God is being made know through the CHURCH to the rulers and authorities in the heavenly realms. Paul also teaches us that, for those who are in Christ, we can approach God with freedom and confidence. These are all big deals that we shouldn't take for granted.

In this special Father's Day edition of "Healthy Conversations", I dialogue with Darin Smith through the topic of how to be an intentional father to your children, especially with the goal being to raise them to know, love, and follow Jesus anywhere He leads them. As fathers and parents, we ALL have room to grow in our intentionality.

Darin and Cody reference the book, "The Intentional Father" by Jon Tyson. If you'd like to check out this book by Jon Tyson, you can follow this link: https://a.co/d/aYEd1FT

In this episode of VERSE by VERSE, we will take a look at Ephesians 2:11-22 where it describes how Jesus destroyed the dividing wall of hostility between Jews and Gentiles and has become our peace, making us into ONE new humanity! Pretty awesome lessons that we desperately need in our divided and hostile world.

Regardless of where you work, is your business living on mission for Jesus? Don't own the business, then how do you live on mission through your work, which is where you spend most of your waking hours within a week. How do we stop compartmentalizing our job separate from our faith? These questions and many more are discussed in this Healthy Conversation with Mark Greaves, of Tithe Lending and the Tithe Foundation. I know that you will be encouraged by the journey that God has led Mark on, and how God wants to do similar things in your life. Share this video with others that you know so that they can be blessed by it as well!

In this Healthy Conversation, I talk with Entrepreneur and Kingdom Warrior Project Discipler, Adam Kennedy, about God's desire for what our identity, heart, and pursuit should be as a disciple of Jesus. What does it mean to be a disciple of Jesus? Should we be focused on being a disciple or discipleship (and what is the difference)? What is the cost of following Jesus as a disciple and is He worth the cost (YES!)? I know you will be challenged and blessed by this conversation, and if you are, please share it with others.

In this episode of Verse By Verse, we will cover Ephesians 2:1-10. This section of scripture will clearly teach us that we were dead in our sins and that we need a savior who is able to raise us from the grave. This salvation only happens by grace through faith in Jesus Christ! Plus some bonus teaching on how baptism biblically fits within this clear teaching of only being saved by the grace through faith in Jesus. What must we do to be saved and receive the saving grace of God through Jesus Christ?

In this episode, which is part #4 in a 4 part apologetics series called "Prove It", Cody will lay out the reasonable and logical case for why we can trust with confidence that the Bible we have today is reliable and  actually is the truth of God's inspired word.

The 4 Questions that Cody will cover in this "Prove It" apologetics series are:
- Does Truth Exist?
- Does God Exist?
- Are Miracles Possible?
- Is The Bible Reliable? 

If the answer is "yes" to all 4 of those questions, than Christianity is definitively true. If even one of those questions is answered with a "no", then Christianity is not true. You decide for yourself, and reach out if you have any questions: [email protected] or visit: www.BetterEquipped.Net

- Does Truth Exist?
- Does God Exist?
- Are Miracles Possible?
- Is The Bible Reliable?
