In Part 2 of Sit, Walk, Stand: A Study in Ephesians, Billy Phenix explores what it really means to "walk" with Jesus. If our identity in Christ changes who we are, how should it change the way we live? In Ephesians 5, Paul invites us to move beyond belief and into a faith that's visible in our everyday lives.
In Part 1 of Sit, Walk, Stand: A Study in Ephesians, Billy Phenix encourages us to ask ourselves this question: “Who do you think you are?” It's a question that goes deeper than labels, roles, or achievements. Many of us might answer it with what we do, what we have, or what others say about us, but Jesus invites us to something more secure. Because what we believe, shapes everything. In Ephesians, Paul reminds us that before we do anything for God, we must first “sit” in who God says we are: chosen, adopted, forgiven, redeemed, and called his masterpiece. We don't earn this identity; we receive it.
Discover five powerful catalysts God uses to grow our faith through a conversation featuring real stories and practical next steps for spiritual growth.
Most of us spend life focused on what to do and how to do it. But deep down, we still wonder why we're here. This message explores what it means to live on purpose and how small acts of good might awaken the purpose you've been looking for.
It's not easy to hold two truths at the same time, especially when they shape how we see ourselves and God. This conversation explores a tension that feels both comforting and confronting, inviting us into a deeper, steadier kind of faith.
Why is it so hard to feel grateful when life is good, yet still so unsettled? In a world marked by beauty and burden, we often try to simplify what was never meant to be simple. Week 2 invites us to hold the tension and discover the steadiness waiting there.
Life is complex, yet we're wired to simplify it. Faith challenges that instinct by inviting us to hold tension—between who we are, who we're becoming, and how God meets us in both.

A desperate situation leads to a bold move, but no one expects how Jesus responds. What He does next reveals something beneath the surface, something that could reshape the way you understand and live out faith.
Peter's story takes a turn on a stormy night when he dares to step out of the boat. What begins as bold faith turns into a moment of sinking reality—and an unexpected glimpse of Jesus' heart in the midst of doubt.
What if you don't feel like serving? Billy reminds us that humility isn't a feeling—it's a choice. Love shows up through serving those in our space and throughout our city. Serve one another humbly in love.

This message centers on the story of Paul, a man who thought he had it all together. Born into status, educated under greatness, and devoted to religious law, Paul was on the fast track to success — until a binding encounter on the road to Damascus flipped his life upside down. That moment wasn't just about changing Paul's mind—it rerouted his soul. He discovered that following God isn't about having a perfect résumé. It's about answering a deeper call. A call to something real. Something alive. Something more. This message invites all of us—whether curious, new to faith, or spiritually stuck—to take a fresh look at what might be missing in our own journey. And maybe the “more” we're looking for is closer than we think.

Billy Phenix interviews Kent Jacobs, the lead pastor of CedarCreek Church in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. Kent shares what Epic has learned through their years of doing Multi-Site. The decision was made early on that Epic could go further faster if they committed to being portable and looking for opportunities around the city. Rather than asking people to come to one church in their city, they decided to take the church to the people. Billy and Kent discuss how being an all portable church works for Epic in the heart of the city.
