What is the purpose of a church, and what is church growth? Pastor Rory explains from Ephesians 4:11-16 that the biblical church growth is spiritual growth and that the purpose of the church is to build itself up in love.

The success of a church depends on the right kind of growth. In order for a church to succeed as God intends, it must function according to certain demands laid out in Scripture. Hear Pastor Nate explain from Ephesians 4:11-13 how the church can achieve unified growth as it's members mature in Christ.

Pastor Rory explains from Ephesians 4:7-11 that one of the ways that God unifies the church is through our diversity. He gifts each one of us differently in Christ in order to contribute what we can to the body, and Christ's victory guarantees that this diversity will create more unity.

What does it look like for the body of Christ to live in unity? Found in the opening paragraph of Ephesians chapter 4, the Apostle Paul begins to supply practical instruction for the church. Hear from Pastor Rory expound the components of unity necessary for looking like Jesus.

God is a glorious God, and He deserves our worship. This is accomplished through our dependence on Him and our growth in the church. Pastor Rory explains these realities from Ephesians 3:20-21.

The Christian life is not just experience. There are certainly realities that are objectively true that God has revealed for man to know. Pastor Rory closes out Ephesians 3:13-19 by explaining how these realities relate to obtaining the fullness of the triune God.

We can be filled with the fullness of the Triune God; in fact, this is the prayer of Paul who models how we ought to pray and what we ought to pursue. Hear Pastor Nate explain from Ephesians 3:13-19 how the fullness of God can become a reality.

John 1:1-18

God's plan is to reveal Himself to us so that He can reveal Himself through us. Pastor Rory explains from Ephesians 3:1-13 how God ordained the church as the mechanism for this today.

Followers of Jesus experience a common and unique bond in Christ. The union we share as citizens of heaven and members of God's family culminates into God’s ultimate purpose for His church. Hear pastor Nate explain from Ephesians 2:19-22 what this means for the local church going forward.
