New City Church | St. Augustine

In today’s sermon, Pastor Trent Griffith continues in the series "The Center of it All" going verse by verse through the book of Ephesians. In the message "Life Without Walls " we see that the gospel offers revolutionary power to tear down walls that divide us from God and each other. Paul reminds us to remember our past condition—being far from God, friendless, and godless. Through Christ's death on the cross, He didn't help us climb over the wall but completely obliterated it, absorbing all hostility between us and God. This creates a new community where former enemies become family, citizens of God's kingdom, and members of His household. However, Christians still struggle with division when we forget who we are and rebuild walls through differences, fear, bitterness, and pride.

In today’s sermon, Pastor Trent Griffith continues in the series "The Center of it All" going verse by verse through the book of Ephesians. In the message "Breath Taken by the Awesomeness of Grace ". Ephesians 2:1-10 reveals the devastating reality that all humanity is spiritually dead in sin, following Satan and deserving God's wrath. However, the phrase 'But God' changes everything. Despite our hopeless condition, God's rich mercy and great love intervene to make us alive in Christ, raise us up, and seat us in heavenly places. This transformation isn't based on our works but is entirely by grace through faith. We are saved not by good works, but for good works that God prepared beforehand for us to walk in. Every believer should have a clear 'but God' story of transformation and understand that we are both God's workmanship being shaped and His tools being used for His purposes.

In today’s sermon, Pastor Trent Griffith continues in the series "The Center of it All" going verse by verse through the book of Ephesians. In the message "Breath Taken by the Awfulness of Sin ". Sin is more than just making mistakes - it's crossing God's boundaries and falling short of His glory. We're all born into a course that leads away from God, influenced by worldly pressures, Satan's temptations, and our own sinful desires. Sin doesn't just make us imperfect; it makes us spiritually dead and subject to God's righteous wrath. The good news is that Jesus absorbed God's wrath on the cross, offering us salvation from the root cause of all our problems. We need this Savior not just once, but every single day as we continue to battle against sin in our lives.

In today’s sermon, Pastor Trent Griffith continues in the series "The Center of it All" going verse by verse through the book of Ephesians. In the message "Identifying God". Our identity is shaped by our knowledge of God's identity, not our career, family, or social status. Paul's prayer in Ephesians 1:15-23 shows us how to find our true center: thank God for faithful people, ask for increasing knowledge of Him, and praise Christ's reign above all. When we understand that we are Jesus' glorious inheritance and have access to His resurrection power, we can live with hope instead of fear and find our all in all in Christ alone.Connect with us:

In today’s sermon, Pastor Trent Griffith continues in the series "The Center of it All" going verse by verse through the book of Ephesians. In the message "The Cure forIdentity Amnesia Part 2". We learn through these verses in Ephesians that these spiritual blessings should transform how we see ourselves and replace the lies we tell ourselves. When our minds say we're orphans, slaves, or alone, the gospel declares we're adopted, free, and have a divine helper. Understanding our true identity in Christ moves us from head knowledge to heart transformation, igniting worship and obedience to God who has lavished His grace upon us.

In today’s sermon, Pastor Trent Griffith continues in the series "The Center of it All" going verse by verse through the book of Ephesians. In the message "The Cure forIdentity Amnesia Part 1". The book of Ephesians reveals that understanding your identity must come before understanding your actions. You are blessed by God with every spiritual blessing, chosen for adoption before the foundation of the world. This divine election should produce incredible humility, unconditional love for others, pursuit of holiness, missional living, and continual praise. Being adopted into God's family means receiving a new identity, family, and privileges that should transform how you live and love others.

In today’s sermon, Pastor Trent Griffith starts a new series "The Center of it All" going verse by verse through the book of Ephesians. In the message "The Center of my identity" we learn that the book of Ephesians teaches that our identity must be rooted in who we are in Christ, not what we do or what has happened to us. Paul identifies himself as an apostle, not by his shameful past, and calls believers saints based on their position in Christ. When Jesus is at the center, grace provides the power to live out our true identity, and peace assures us that God holds everything in place.
