- Ephesians (Part 20): The Armour of God: The Sword of the Spirit
Growing up, many Christians believe that using the Sword of the Spirit simply means that we ought to memorize the Bible and throw truths at Satan when he tempts us. Today we discover that this is only barely scratching the surface of what Paul is talking about. And if we dig deep enough, we find incredible encouragement regarding how we ought to witness to others about the Gospel, even when our message seems unbelievable and ridiculous.
38 min - Ephesians (Part 19): The Armour of God: The Helmet of Salvation
This week we take a look at the Helmet of Salvation, wherein we discover that not all suffering is "God's plan", and what it means for God to work "good" out of some of the senseless suffering we endure.
37 min - Ephesians (Part 18): The Armour of God: The Shield of Faith
Have you ever wondered why God doesn't just get rid of Satan? This week we learn why, and what we need to do about it.
41 min - Ephesians (Part 17): The Armour of God: How Jesus Redefined Peace
Peace naturally has the implication of violent war and suppression behind it. There are many religions in the world that ultimately fall back on this definition of peace. Not Christianity. Discover with us why because of Jesus Christianity can be a religion of true peace, void of bloodshed and violence.
38 min - Ephesians (Part 16): The Armour of God: The Breastplate of Righteousness
This week we learn about the second piece of the Armour of God, the Breastplate of Righteousness. It turns out that this piece of armour is both a challenge and an encouragement to us.
35 min - Ephesians (Part 15): The Armour of God: Girding Your LoinsWe apologize for the poor audio quality, we are having some difficulties with the mic.This week we begin to actually look at the pieces of the Armour of God, what they are used for, and why it matters. We learn what the "Belt of Truth" actually is, what it is not, and how to equip it properly for the sake of God's Kingdom.36 min
- Ephesians (Part 14): Christopher Nolan Was RightThe idea that love is the strongest force in the universe and one of its core building blocks was central to Christopher Nolan's film, Interstellar. This week we look at how that idea is, interestingly, quite close to reality.32 min
- Ephesians (Part 13): Paul's Solution to SlaveryThis week we learn about how Paul's solution to slavery is to not have a revolution to end slavery. It's a controversial view, and one that is difficult to work through, but in the end we see how Paul actually demands more than the abolishing of slavery and has greater goals than revolution.37 min
- Ephesians (Part 12): Obedience and the CrossWe apologize for the late upload time. This week we looked at Paul's radical redefinition of the relationship between parent and child, and how mutual submission affects both parties. We also try to work through the messy aspects of when this relationship doesn't work.42 min
- Ephesians (Part 11): The Meaning of MarriageThis week we take on one of the most controversial things Paul ever wrote about: submission within marriage. And as we do that, we discover that this passage is far more than just an ancient household code, but the key to understanding what marriage actually exists for, why it exists, and how we can all, no matter our relationship status, gain something from studying it.37 min
