In Mark 5 we find Jesus doing the unthinkable – traversing "a lake of chaos" to reach one person, in what appears to be a failure of ministry. And yet it is through this incredible transformation of the one that an entire ministry and change of a pagan region takes place soon thereafter.

Series: The Gospel Toolkit
Study: 1 – See Your Need

This is the first installment of Eric Ludy’s series on The Gospel Toolkit in which he will be explaining the 35 activities (a.k.a. tools) intrinsic to the formation of the Gospel Life within a believer. Seeing your need of a Savior is where it all begins. To know your need for God is a gift from heaven.

Series: Ephesians Bible Study

We are beginning our expositional study in the book of Ephesians.

In this introductory lesson, we walk through Paul's missionary journeys showing why Ephesus was such a strategic location for ministry and then take a cursory view of Paul's letter to the church in Ephesus.
