South Canadian Valley Church of Christ's Podcast

What about your life in Christ? What significance does that mean to be IN Christ? What does life in Christ look like?

Have you ever thought about why we need to put on the whole armor of God?

Put on the whole armor of God, that you may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we do not wrestle against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this age, against spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places. (Ephesians 6;11-12).

If we can help you with your armor or in some other way, will you please contact the elders at South Canadian Valley Church of Christ.

What does it mean to walk worthy of your calling in Ephesians 4:1-6? Are you a humble and gentle person when teaching or living among those in the family of God and those outside the family of God? Do you show patience toward all people no matter the circumstances? Would you bear up others in the spirit of Love? Is it important to you to pursue unity of the spirit in the bond of peace? God has laid down his life not only for you, but all of humanity in Love. Would you be a part of this loving family?

This is the first part of a four part study over the book of Ephesians.  This lesson analyzes chapter 1:1-14 and discusses who we are supposed be as Christians in Jesus Christ. As such, we may look to Paul's writing in Ephesians and see the wealth we attain when we receive Christ through baptism. We are rich in His glory, His blessings, and His mercy. We pray that this richness will motivate us to remain steadfast in our faith and trust in His will above our own.

Often we think that our mindset will lead us to action. The bible teaches us that faith comes from the word God. His word teaches us that maintaining good habits in reading our bibles, praying to God, and fulfilling our duty to edify one another is what leads us to a healthy mindset. Faith is what makes the difference between living to please God and living to please ourselves.  This lesson offers an encouragement to press towards the upward way and to live as a faithful servant to grow Christ's church.

How should we respond to the rulers and authorities that have been put over us? The story of Daniel teaches us the proper way to submit to those that God has given authority.  As Christians, we are to respond to our authorities with the knowledge that it is God who has placed them above us (1 Timothy 2:1-6). Not only should we respond with humility and honor, but with gentle criticism when our authorities go against the commands of God.

What should we know about baptism?

Everday is made up of decisions, some not so important, some are.  Daily we are asked to choose between God and society or culture. Whom will you serve?

Sin. We know a great deal about it but how well do we understand just how devastating sin can be even after we are forgiven?

Are you just hanging on? Life just got you down. The two disciples going to a village named Emmaus were very sad as well but would soon meet Jesus and have their life turned from ice cold to burning hot. Jesus has that effect and can turn your life around as well.
