Division can start small—a hurt feeling, a preference, a bit of pride—and before long, the bricks start stacking into walls that keep people apart. But in Ephesians 2, Paul reminds us that Jesus didn’t just tear down a wall between Jew and Gentile—He tore down every wall that pride, prejudice, and religion could ever build.

In this message, Pastor Matt Angle unpacks what it means to be “made nigh by the blood of Christ” and how true unity isn’t about agreeing on everything—it’s about belonging to Someone who is everything. From real-life stories of adoption and reconciliation to the powerful image of Christ as our Cornerstone, this episode will challenge and encourage you to let grace do the building.

This message from Ephesians 1:15–23 reminds us that the Christian life is not about striving for more blessings, but about having our eyes opened to what we already possess in Christ. Pastor Matt explores how prayer brings clarity by showing us the DNA of the church—faith and love—and how revelation and wisdom give us sight to see God’s truth. He points us to the hope that anchors the soul when the world shakes, and to the power that secures victory—the same resurrection power that raised Jesus now at work in believers today. With historical insights, biblical illustrations, and practical application, this message calls us to stop stumbling in the dark and start living in the light of God’s truth, reminding us that in Christ we already have everything we need.

• Chosen before the foundation of the world
• Adopted as sons and daughters of God
• Redeemed through the blood of Christ
• Sealed with the Holy Spirit as our eternal guarantee

Through biblical truth, real-life illustrations, and practical application, you’ll see how salvation is not a cosmetic cleanup but a complete transformation. Your worth and acceptance are not fragile—they are fixed forever in Jesus.

This week on New Hope for Today, Pastor Matt Angle takes us to Nehemiah 12 for a powerful reminder that worship is more than a song—it’s a surrendered life.

When the walls of Jerusalem were rebuilt, the people didn’t just celebrate a construction project—they dedicated their city, their families, and their hearts back to God. Their joy was so real it could be heard afar off.

In this message, you’ll discover:

• Why true worship begins with restoration, not routine.
• How joy in God becomes uncontainable and contagious.
• The difference between hurried “microwave” worship and prepared, heartfelt praise.
• Why lasting worship requires intentional leadership, stewardship, and public testimony.

Whether your spiritual life feels vibrant or dry, this message will challenge you to move from going through the motions to living a life that echoes God’s glory far beyond Sunday morning.

The walls were rebuilt—but something greater was restored.

In this powerful message, we journey to Nehemiah 8 where the people of God, freshly delivered and newly protected, cry out for more than safety—they cry out for Scripture. This isn’t just a story about physical restoration; it’s about reviving worship from the inside out.

 Then this message is for you.
