Former pastor of Hays Christian Church, Steve Culver, returns to deliver a timely message. Ephesians 4:14-16 expresses that speaking the truth in love matures us spiritually and allows us to become more like Christ. We learn the importance of speaking truth in love, especially to those whose actions reflect unloving qualities.

WHAT IS A HEALTHY CHRISTIAN?
This is part 2 of Pastor Jesse Cunningham's message from Ephesians chapter 4. Ephesians chapter 1-3 can also be heard in previous week's recordings. Ephesians chapter 1 started on 5-25-25.
Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Ephesians 4Paul urges believers to live in unity, maturity, and holiness as members of Christ's body. He calls them to walk in humility, gentleness, patience, and love, striving to maintain the unity of the Spirit. There is one body, one Spirit, one hope, one Lord, one faith, one baptism, and one Father who is over all, through all, and in all. Christ has given apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers to equip the church for ministry and spiritual growth. Followers of Christ must mature in faith, avoiding false teachings and growing into Him, the head of the church. They should cast off their old sinful ways and embrace a new life of righteousness. Paul encourages honesty, kindness, forgiveness, and speaking words that uplift others, reflecting God's love in all our relationships. Are you walking in a manner worthy of God's calling? The most observable proof is in how we treat one another. We share a common faith and life in Christ, and we must exhibit gentleness, patience, love, and enduring tolerance towards each other. We cannot be in fellowship with God while being at odds with fellow believers. The apostles and prophets of Jesus's time taught about Him to help us refute false doctrine and speak the truth in love, building each other up. While people in the world may have hardened hearts, God's people possess soft, compassionate spirits. We must be honest, charitable, mindful of our words, free of bitterness, and abundantly forgiving, in honor of the mercy of our King. Heavenly Father, implore us to walk in a manner that brings honor to Your name. Help us understand that attitudes and actions among Christians are central to being unique and united in this divided world. Grant us the humility to continue learning about Jesus, so we can refute errors concerning Him, and so that we might know how to encourage and support fellow members of the body of Christ. Soften our hearts. Deepen our compassion and love for one another. We commit to being honest, helpful, and generous among believers and all of humanity, as Jesus is with us. Thought Questions: - Are you a uniting, patient, peaceable presence among the people of God? How important to God is your Christ-like light among Christians? - What unique gifts has God given you to use among His people? How are you presently cultivating and exercising those gifts? - How mindful are you of your words, especially during contentious times? What makes Christians different than the world in their speech?

I therefore, a prisoner for the Lord, urge you to walk in a manner worthy of the calling to which you have been called, 2 with all humility and gentleness, with patience, bearing with one another in love, 3 eager to maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace. 4 There is one body and one Spirit—just as you were called to the one hope that belongs to your call— 5 one Lord, one faith, one baptism, 6 one God and Father of all, who is over all and through all and in all. 7 But grace was given to each one of us according to the measure of Christ's gift. 8 Therefore it says, “When he ascended on high he led a host of captives, and he gave gifts to men.” 9 (In saying, “He ascended,” what does it mean but that he had also descended into the lower regions, the earth? 10 He who descended is the one who also ascended far above all the heavens, that he might fill all things.) 11 And he gave the apostles, the prophets, the evangelists, the shepherds and teachers, 12 to equip the saints for the work of ministry, for building up the body of Christ, 13 until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, 14 so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. 15 Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, 16 from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.1. Do you agree it can be easy to approach church with a consumer mindset? How often is your primary question, “is this serving my needs?” 2. Have you heard something like, “my church is to go on a walk in the redwoods”? How is that possibly like church and also not like church?3. Does the local church's call to be the physical presence of Jesus excite you? Why or why not?4. We talked about unity, rescue and experience as ways the church can reflect Jesus. How do you think GSB is doing along those lines, or others, reflecting Jesus? 5. Paul paints a picture that believers in the local church are connected to each other and need each other to grow collectively and individually. Do you agree with this? How does this conflict with our individualism?6. Do you believe you are needed at your local church and have been given a role and function to play? What might that ‘serving grace' be?
What does change look like? The Gospel of Jesus Christ gives us new life. This new life involves growth and change. In Ephesians 4:17-32, we see what a changed life should look like.
Who has added value to your life—and whose life are you adding value to? In this episode, we dive into Ephesians 4:7-16 and uncover the radical truth: God's greatest gifts aren't things—they're people. From growing believers who guide us to friends who walk alongside us, God uses relationships to shape our hearts, strengthen our faith, and grow the church. Through stories of discipleship, family moments, and the everyday disciples around us, we'll explore how generosity, gifts, and growth come together in the body of Christ. Learn how to find a mentor, become a mentor, and experience the transformative power of Spirit-filled people in your life. You don't grow alone—and neither does anyone else. God's generosity comes wrapped in people.
Message Take Aways:1. Being united in the Gospel of Jesus Christ should produce a cohesion among His body that inspires each member to nurture and support one another in love—“Therefore let us pursue the things which make for peace and the things by which one may edify another.” Romans 14:192. The various spiritual gifts stewarded to every one of us are to be utilized in collaboration with one another to edify, grow, and mature the body of Christ—“As each one has received a gift, minister it to one another, as good stewards of the manifold grace of God.” 1 Peter 4:103. Being made a new creation in Christ will be manifested by a conduct that aligns with righteousness and holiness, which we should zealously desire to walk in—“(Christ) gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.” Titus 2:14

Have you ever longed for a closer relationship with Jesus, but wrestled with how to actually get there? This week at Columbia View, we're taking discipleship out of theory and into real life. Instead of a sermon, you'll hear from five voices in our church who piloted a new initiative we're calling Everyday Disciples. These aren't pastors or professors—they're everyday people who said “yes” to walking more intentionally with Jesus in community. In this conversation, you'll hear honest stories of what it's like to engage Scripture together, listen for the Spirit's voice, take real steps of obedience, and even wrestle with the awkwardness and beauty of accountability. Discipleship isn't a program. It's a way of life. And this week's episode will give you a front row seat to what happens when ordinary people create space to be with Jesus, become like Jesus, and do what He did—together.
Where do you fit in the mission of Jesus' church? When God gives us new life in his grace, he gifts and empowers and equips each of us to advance his purposes. Join us as we explore how God grows his people.

August 17, 2025Ephesians 4:29-32 ESV“Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear. And do not grieve the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you were sealed for the day of redemption. Let all bitterness and wrath and anger and clamor and slander be put away from you, along with all malice. Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you.”Big Idea: Even though we are a sinful people, God has invited us to participate in extending His kingdom. Our primary tool for this Divine mandate is the spoken word. The words that we speak not only reveal the condition of our hearts, but we also use them to affirm or corrupt one another.
