In Ephesians 2:11-22, Paul makes some astounding statements about Christian unity; its foundation and its importance in God’s grand design. In this message, entitled “What God Has Joined Together” we explore God’s grand design and why Christian unity matters to God. Paul’s basic premise is so radical that he goes on in 3:1-13 to claim divine authority for his statements. As God reconciles us to himself, barriers between Christ’s followers also tumble

As the people of God, we are called to reflect His unity.

This message is a story without a happy ending. A father: King David, and his sons Amnon and Absolom, have unforgiveness and bitterness in their hearts, along with a grandfather, Ahithophel. Don’t allow their ending to become your ending too. Trust that God is able to carry you through those time of pain to a place of grace.

In his introduction, Pastor Cam describes a wood-working project he made from a piece of diamond willow. In Ephesians 2:10, we find the words: “We are his (God’s) workmanship.” In this message entitled “The Parable of the Diamond Willow” taken from Ephesians 2:1-10, we trace God’s craftsmanship from raw material through to finished product. We also gain some valuable clues about why he is building the Church and how he feels about it.

In Ephesians 1:15-23, Paul describes how he prays for the believers (saints) in Ephesus. What does he ask for? Knowledge. That they may know! What exactly does Paul want them to know? That is the question that we explore in this message (Open Our Eyes, Lord). And what impact does this knowledge have on our everyday lives

The opening paragraph in Paul’s letter to the Ephesians (Ephesians 1:3-14) is one long sentence; the longest sentence in the Bible. In it we discover the incredible riches that are to be found in Christ (“every spiritual blessing”) and the salvation that God has provided. We also discover the reason behind it all: God is revealing his character and his attributes to the watching universe and working out a grand, master plan To the Praise of His Glory.

To encourage everyone to live a life with Godly character and integrity, in a manner which reflects Christ, and for God’s glory.

Christmas is over. The presents have been opened and it is time to put away the decorations for another year. But what shall we do with the message of Christmas? Using the example of the shepherds on the first Christmas and the writing of the Apostle Paul, we find that the message of Christmas deserves telling all year long. Let’s Go Tell It on the Mountain! A Savior has been born. He is Christ the Lord.

This is Pastor Cam’s “alpha and omega” Christmas sermon, as he preaches his final Christmas sermon as pastor of ECC by repeating the very first Christmas sermon he preached at ECC in December, 1990. It is a repeat for many (a favorite ECC tradition), but if you are new to the church in the last 3 years, this sermon may surprise you as we look at Luke 2:1-7 and ask the question: What Really Happened in Bethlehem?
