Paul’s final time with the elders of Ephesus include him sharing his concerns and encouragements for the church. And his final words to them were, “It is more blessed to give than to receive.” Out of all the words Paul could have quoted from Jesus, why did he choose to highlight generosity as literal last words?

Today’s text illustrates a stunning reversal. In this life a rich man is feasting, and a poor man is starving. In this life a rich man is clothed with fine linen, while a poor man is covered in sores. But when both men die the rich man ends up tormented in hell, while the poor man is comforted in heaven. This story serves as a warning against indifference and greed. And it also serves as a reminder that in eternity God’s justice will right every wrong in this life.

From the shoes we never wear to the upgrades we don’t need, one commentator wrote, “We’ve moved past the things we want and need and are now buying those things that have nothing to do with our lives.” Join us as we answer these critical questions–What is covetousness and greed? And How can we become rich toward God?

Change isn’t something you achieve—it’s someone you become. Discover how true transformation happens—not through self-optimization or passivity, but through the Spirit’s renewing power.

What if our struggle with prayer is really a mirror held up to the age we live in—an age that worships control and avoids mystery? In a world discipled by productivity and performance on one side, and escapism and apathy on the other, this teaching explores how Jesus calls us into a deeper reality—where prayer is not withdrawal or striving, but participation in God’s renewal of the world.

In this powerful message, Pastor Philip Muela unpacks Paul’s “tangent” in Ephesians 3:1–12, a breathtaking detour that reveals the mystery of the gospel, the purpose of our suffering, and the brilliance of God’s redemptive plan.

If your version of the gospel only features reconciliation with God but denies, ignores, or minimizes reconciliation with one another, then your gospel is not the gospel of Jesus Christ. Join us as we discover how the gospel of peace tears down walls of hostility and division in the church.

Have you ever wondered what the Bible means when it says we were “dead in our sins”? Tune in this week, as we walk through Paul’s powerful words in Ephesians 2:1–10 and discover the hope of being made alive in Christ.

We’ll unpack what it means to be spiritually dead, how God’s mercy and grace revive us, and what new life in Christ looks like, marked by humility, purpose, and freedom.

In the same way humans need food and water, followers of Jesus need a steady diet of praise and prayer. Join us as we unpack Paul’s prayer that we might live our lives in light of having a future glory, being a treasured possession, and in light of having resurrection power in Christ.

We often describe ourselves as living in something. We can be in love or live in fear. We can live in the past or live for the moment. To live in something is to live under its influence.
