In this episode, we dive into Ephesians 2:11-22 and explore the powerful theme of transformation. Just like the heroes in our favorite movies, we experience a dramatic change in our lives when we encounter Christ. We were once separated, strangers, and shut out from God, but through Jesus, we are brought near, made whole, and built into something greater. Join us as we unpack how this transformation shapes our identity and our future. Don’t miss this message on remembering who we were, what Christ did, and where we're headed!

Have you ever felt like you're missing the mark, like something's holding you back from truly connecting with God? In this insightful message, Tucker explores the concept of being "dead in our transgressions," explaining what that means and why it's the natural state of every human being. He doesn't sugarcoat things; he dives right into the reality of our sin nature, inherited from Adam and Eve, and how even small acts of disobedience separate us from a holy God. But don't worry, it's not all doom and gloom! This message is packed with hope, reminding us of God's immeasurable love and mercy. Discover how God, in his incredible grace, offers us a way out of our "deadness" through the free gift of salvation through Jesus Christ. This gift isn't something we can earn, it's not a reward for good behavior – it's offered to everyone, regardless of what they've done. Learn what it means to truly accept this gift, to make Jesus Lord of your life, and experience the freedom and joy of a life transformed by Christ. This episode is a powerful reminder that no matter how far from God we might feel, His grace is always within reach.

Tonight we continue to look at Paul's letter to the church in Ephesus. Paul asked that we know God better, know the hope we have in Him, know the value we have in Him, know the power we have in Him. If you do not have a place to worship on Sunday mornings we would love to see you Sundays at 8:45am for breakfast in the Bunker followed by small groups at 9:00am.

Tonight we look at Ephesians 1:3-14 and see how we are chosen in Christ.

Tonight we look at an overview of the Letter to the church in Ephesus and get a background in Acts about how the city of Ephesus transformed from a city known for dark magic and worship of a false goddess to one of the most influential churches in the early church.
