Series: Big GodWeek: 4Scripture: Ephesians 2:11-22Preacher: Kevin Weisman

The Scripture readings are Genesis 4:1-15; Ephesians 2:1-10; and Luke 18:9-14.You have been raised from your deadness in sin to be living men who walk in the love for both God and your neighbor that He created you to have. God has made you His ‘workmanship,' His work of art, shining His light in a dark, evil, lonely world.

Send us a textEphesians 2The Ephesian believers were once spiritually dead in their sins, following the ways of the world; however, God, rich in mercy, made them alive with Christ. Their salvation is accomplished by grace through faith, not by works, so no one can boast. As God's handiwork and driven by His incredible mercy, they were created in Christ for good works that He prepared for them. Through Jesus' sacrifice, the barrier between Jews and Gentiles was removed, making all believers one in Him. No longer strangers, they became citizens of God's kingdom and members of His family. Together, they were being built into a holy temple, with Christ as the cornerstone, becoming a dwelling place for God's Spirit. No one deserves to be in a saved relationship with God. We have all given in to the enemy and sinned against our Father. “But God, rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us,” made us alive together through Christ. God's act of grace saves us through Jesus as we choose to have faith in Him. Our works are flawed, but Christ's perfect work has restored those who trust and follow Him. We now live faithful to Him, grateful for what God has done for us through His Son. And we are not alone. Christ has broken down walls, uniting all believers in one body, with access in one Spirit to the Father. We build our lives on Jesus, and we joyfully do so together. Kind Lord, we humbly thank You for Your abundant mercy and great love that made us alive in Christ. We know we were once dead in our sins, but by Your grace, we are saved through faith. Help us walk in the good works You have prepared for us, living as reflections of Your love. Unite us as one body, breaking down any barriers of division. May we always remember that we are Your dwelling place, built on Christ, our cornerstone. Help us recognize Your Spirit and live with hearts of gratitude filled with peace, love, and humble service. Thought Questions: -       You once walked in darkness, refusing to live in the light of Christ. What did God do that changed your heart and caused you to repent? -       Christ's blood broke down all walls and united all believers. Is that still an important message for the church today? Why is it needful? -       Christians must keep growing into a holy temple with Jesus as our cornerstone. What helps you keep growing in Him alongside believers?

Scripture Reading from Ephesians 2: 11-22 (0:00)Sermon by Charles Anderson (4:43)

Rev. Dr. Tassie Green, Interim Senior Pastor

Message Take Aways:1. The Ephesians experienced a closeness with the Lord because God the Father willingly made the way for salvation by the blood of Jesus—“He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.” Colossians 1:13-142. Both Jewish and Gentile believers now share a commonality in their mutual trust in the cross of Jesus Christ which removed the enmity between them while bringing peace between God and man—“For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.” 1 Tim. 2:5-63. The Church is masterfully crafted by God the Father built upon the Cornerstone, Christ the Son, and exists to grow into a holy temple that glorifies God by the power of the Holy Spirit—“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.” John 15:5

Welcome to the 12th sermon in our series on what the Bible is all about. Do you really know what the Bible is about? When you understand the point an author is trying to make even the most complicated of books make much more sense. This summer we are going to “stand on the shoulders” of D. A. Carson and his book The God Who is There: Finding Your Place in God's Story as we walk through the big story of Scripture to discuss what the Bible is truly about.

Most of us do not like to think about death, especially when we think about our own death. While all men will die one day in the future, Paul turns this concept on its head by saying that all men start off as dead men. In this case, however, they are spiritually dead. In his extravagant grace and mercy, God, who is very much alive, brings lifeless souls to new life in Christ. Paul goes out of his way to say that it is by grace we have been saved, through faith and not of works. In other words, you are saved because what a living God has done for us, and not for what we have done for God. This is true both for Jews and for Gentiles. Under Christ, we are united as one, and he has reconciled all men under the headship of Jesus. :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Morning Sermon Mt. Olive Baptist Church Ephesians 2:11-22 August 10 2025

Exposition of Ephesians 2:1-10

Some of us grew up in stable family environments, while others of us experienced homes with ongoing change and upheaval. In either case, God intends the church to be a place of wholeness, peace, and support on which we can depend throughout all of life's ups and downs. But what might this look like in practical application? And how can a church grow in this area? This week, we will study the familial connections in the early church and hear of a modern example.

Preached by Hylton Banks as part of the series "One-off guest sermons."

WHAT IS A HEALTHY CHRISTIAN?

You don't have to earn what God already gave you. So many of us live like salvation is something we need to work for — like if we do enough, serve enough, or get it all right, then we'll be accepted by God. But this week's message from Ephesians 2:8–10 flips that upside down. The truth? You are saved by grace, through faith — not by works. It's a gift. Not a paycheck. Not a reward. Just grace. In this message, we explore how easy it is to stumble over that truth — just like the Israelites did. Instead of trusting in God's grace, they tried to earn their way into His love. But that kind of striving leads to burnout, not breakthrough. Jesus isn't a barrier in your way — He's the rock you can stand on. And when you stand in His grace, everything changes. You'll learn: • Why “being good enough” is a myth that keeps us stuck • How God's grace frees us from striving and shame • What it means to be God's handiwork — created with intention and purpose • Why the gospel isn't just about what you're saved from — but what you're saved for You were made on purpose, for a purpose. God's not asking you to prove yourself — He's inviting you to trust Him, walk with Him, and live out the good works He's already planned for you. This is a message for the tired, the burned out, the perfectionists, and the overachievers — anyone who needs to remember that grace is the starting line, not the finish.

WHAT IS A HEALTHY CHRISTIAN?

The Christians' Exalted Life: A Sermon on Ephesians 2:4–7 by Jason S. DeRouchie

Introducing Credible Witness, a new podcast produced by Mark Labberton and the Rethinking Church Initiative. In this episode of Conversing, Mark features the full premiere episode of Credible Witness, and is joined by host Nikki Toyama-Szeto and historian Jemar Tisby. Exploring how Christian witness to the gospel of Christ has become compromised—and what might restore its credibility. Reflecting on five years of candid, challenging conversation among diverse Christian leaders during the wake of George Floyd's murder and rising Christian nationalism, the three discuss the soul-searching, disillusionment, and hope that emerged. Together, they examine the cultural fractures, theological tensions, and moral failures that have pushed many to extremes, elevating strident voices as an increased number of people to leave the church. They articulate the mission and vision of Credible Witness, testify to a persistent hope in Jesus and the power of honest community, face painful truths, and imagine a church that more truly reflects the love, justice, and mercy of God. Key Moments “We absolutely get that… but we're still on board with Jesus. And Jesus has always been with us and hasn't left us.” “This isn't about leaving Jesus. This is about following Jesus.” “We've got a better story to tell.” “It was the church that was putting the church at risk.” “The church has a reputation in the United States… and not a good one by and large.” About the Guests Nikki Toyama-Szeto is the host of Credible Witness, and is executive director of Christians for Social Action, equipping the church to pursue justice and follow Jesus in the tension of our times. Jemar Tisby is the author of The Color of Compromise and How to Fight Racism, and founder of The Witness: A Black Christian Collective. He is the host of Pass the Mic. Show Notes “This isn't about leaving Jesus. This is about following Jesus.” —Jemar Tisby Nikki introduces Credible Witness as a space for honest stories of faith amid moral complexity and social tension Mark recalls the origins of the conversation in summer 2020: COVID-19, George Floyd, church division, and racial injustice Jemar Tisby clarifies the mission for imagining a more credible Christian witness Nikki reflects on trust-building in a space that welcomed “tricky truths” and honesty without pretense The group's five-year journey begins as a short experiment but grows into a lasting community of deep discernment “We weren't trying to replicate any harm.” —Jemar Tisby The group names white Christian nationalism and silence on injustice as threats to the church's credibility Ephesians 2 and the power of “coming together of the unlikes” as a witness to the resurrection “It was the church that was putting the gospel at risk.” —Mark Labberton Nikki explains how church neutrality began to speak volumes: “Choosing silence was actually a loud voice.” Discussion on the failure of integrity: “Too many things in isolation” eroded credibility Jemar highlights story as central to public theology: “We've got a better story to tell.” The group wrestles with algorithmic distortion and toxic digital narratives shaping Christian identity “Not just message, but embodiment”: The church's credibility depends on lived ethics, not just theological claims Mark emphasizes self-examination: “Are we credible?” Dissonance and disagreement as gifts: “What kept people in the room was the gift of dissonance.” —Nikki Toyama-Szeto Jemar recalls moments of tension over how to prioritize justice issues while remaining unified in Christ The group's diversity as a deliberate strategy: different traditions, backgrounds, and responsibilities within the church Nikki names divine timing: the conversation is more urgent now than when it began “We're not all supposed to be the same... That's how everything gets covered.” —Jemar Tisby Mark frames the church's failure as internal implosion—not external threat “Why is the church seemingly so unchanged?” —Mark Labberton Nikki describes how marginalized voices carry wisdom for the way forward Jemar articulates the podcast's goal: a mirror and a window for listeners to see both themselves and the larger church Nikki closes with an invitation to slow down and listen generously: “Pull up a chair...” Production Credits Conversing is produced and distributed in partnership with Comment Magazine and Fuller Seminary.

Hundreds of years before Jesus came into the world, the prophets spoke of him as one that would bring peace. They said things like that he would be the "Prince of Peace" and that "of the increase of his government and of peace there will be no end." (Isaiah 9:6-7) Zechariah 9:10 said that "he shall speak peace to the nations." Micah 5:2 speaks of a ruler that would come forth from Bethlehem and it says that "he shall be their peace."In Ephesians 2:14, Paul says that Jesus is himself our peace. He is the one who reconciles all peoples both to God and to one another in his body, the church. This is especially relevant in our day as the world around us calls for peace and for unity amongst a very diverse humanity. The problem, however, is that the world fails to recognize that true peace can only be found in a person (Jesus Christ), as Ephesians 2:14 emphasizes. It is only as diverse people are united in one body (the Church) and to one Savior (Jesus) that true peace can be found. Thankfully, God has promised to bring people from every tribe and tongue and nation into this one body and under this one Savior! Indeed, he shall speak peace to the nations!This sermon was preached by Jackson Hankey at River City Church on Thursday, July 17th, 2025.

Current Sermon Series   Behind the Music: The Gospel According to Billboard July 20 – August 10 Join us for an eye-opening series that looks beneath the surface of contemporary rock music to uncover enduring spiritual truths. Behind the driving rhythms and resounding vocals, rock artists have always wrestled with universal themes of redemption, hope, acceptance, and transcendence that mirror our own faith journeys. We'll explore how songs about love, forgiveness, pain, and belonging reflect biblical wisdom and speak to our deepest spiritual questions. We'll take a deep dive into the origins and meanings of each song and, through thoughtful biblical reflection, discover how God's voice often emerges from the most unexpected places, revealing divine truth behind the music we hear every day.
