Because we all have families, we all have things that we learn from our families. As the saying goes: "The apple doesn't fall too far from the tree." Some of those things hopefully are good. Yet, some of those are bad, or at least less than ideal. Eph. 5:1 says to, "Imitate God as dearly loved children." In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp teaches from Ephesians 5:1-21. He shares the good news that we have a new father and, thus, a new family. Because we have a new family, we have a new footpath.

If one of the apostles had planted your church and then he wrote a letter back to you that became a book of the Bible, what would it say? Well, the answer is that it would say basically what it already says, because God's word is sufficient for all people, in all places, at all times. So, what were the concerns of the apostles? One of the greatest concerns was false teaching or philosophies.

In this episode, Pastor Chris Kipp teaches a message on "Gender & The Bible" in a short series called Body & Soul. Chris teaches from Colossians 2:8-10 and then walks us through 4 verses that help us understand the "transgender" debate from a Biblical perspective: Genesis 1:26-27, Genesis 3:7-10, Deuteronomy 22:5, Matthew 19:3-6.
