Teaching by Book: Ephesians
Be the Church, Part 3
God gives us gifts then gives us as a gift to a local church body. No God-given gift is better or worse than another. Unity in the body is the result of corporate humility.

The enemy comes to steal, kill and destroy – but Jesus has come that we might have life.
Watch / ListenPicture Imperfect
Marriage is an imperfect earthly picture of a perfect heavenly truth, a living parable of the gospel. What story is your marriage telling those around you?
Watch / ListenGrace Given, Grace Applied – Part 1
Grace is not just for salvation – we need it in every ongoing aspect of our lives. Grace is not opposed to effort; it is opposed to earning.
Watch / ListenThe Armor of God
The lie the enemy whispers in our ear is almost always some form of “God could never love you.” If you try to defend yourself with the armor of your own attributes, you’ll believe the lie every time – but God offers a better armor, and in Christ, the sin you cannot forget, God cannot remember.

Watch / ListenGetting to Know Scripture, Part 3

Watch / ListenThe Key to Victory
God has given those who are in Christ “every spiritual blessing” (Ephesian 1:3) – but why do some Christians seem to be living a life of victory, while others struggle greatly? Pastor Tony Pedroni teaches from the book of Ephesians on the key to living victoriously.
Watch / ListenThe Forgotten War, Part 6 – The Armor of God
Perhaps the greatest strategy the enemy has against the church is sideline Christians by making them comfortable to the point that they have no impact on the world around them. But God provides all we need for the battle, and He provides the victory.
Watch / ListenThe Forgotten War, Part 2 – The Battlefield of the Mind
The lies of the enemy constantly attack our minds, leading us away from the pure truth of the Word of God. His tactics follow the same pattern nearly every time; a combination of doubt, direct contradictions of the Word of God, and half-truths.
Watch / ListenThe Forgotten War, Part 1 – Welcome to the War
Spiritual warfare is constantly raging around us, and ignoring it will keep us in bondage to it. We need not fear our enemy, but we must be aware of what he is doing so we do not fall captive to his schemes.
Watch / ListenRunaway Bride: The Mystery of Christ and His Church
It is common today to separate Christ from his church – people want Jesus, but not church involvement. Yet, God has ordained that the church play a major role in His great work of redemption. Ephesians 5 presents the church as Jesus’ bride and conveys with great strength and promise the deep, abiding love God has for those who are His in Christ.
Watch / ListenThe World System: It’s Where You Live, Part 3
As we continue our World System series, we look at the church and culture. While culture may in some ways reflect the glory of God, it also has the capacity to pull us away from Him to the extent that it is influenced by the world system. Yet, the church also has the capacity to greatly impact the culture. The question is… will we?
ListenWalking in Oneness
Looking at Jesus’ prayer to His Father in John 17, Pastor Wayne Johnson discusses what it means to be “one” with God.
