Current Sermon Series The Politics of Jesus: Following Christ Beyond Left and Right September 7 – October 12 In our polarized world, Christians often feel pressured to choose between political tribes. But Jesus offers a third way that transcends partisan divisions. This series explores how Christ's kingdom values challenge both conservative and progressive assumptions, calling us to a higher allegiance. We'll examine how Jesus' cross dismantles systems of domination, how his economics challenge both capitalism and socialism, and how his community of disciples embodies a new social order. Rather than baptizing political ideologies, we'll explore how the gospel can shape our civic engagement, finding unity in Christ while navigating complex social issues with wisdom, grace, and prophetic imagination and courage.

We've all heard the saying “The devil made me do it”. The fact is, the devil can't MAKE you do anything. However, we do have an adversary, who studies us and does everything he can, to separate us from the love and protection of God. Much like a great hunter or fisherman, he knows the where, when and how to tempt us to take the bait. Join us this Sunday as we continue our series in Ephesians 6:10-17. Here Paul tells us exactly how to defeat the schemes of the devil, by putting on “The Armor of God”.

In this stirring sermon, Pastor Micah Stephens fast-forwards Godspeak's anchored reading to Ephesians 6, urging believers to don God's full armor amid losses like Voddie Baucham and Charlie Kirk's assassination. Sharing Instagram testimonies of salvations, forgiven murders, and renewed marriages sparking revival, he contrasts ancient and modern warriors, emphasizing truth, righteousness, and bold gospel proclamation to conquer spiritual strongholds and engage culture biblically.Reference Verses2 Corinthians 10 verses 1–18, Ephesians 6 verses 10–20, Galatians 2 verse 20, Isaiah 59 verse 17, 1 Samuel 17 verses 38–39, John 8 verses 31–32, John 14 verse 6, 2 Corinthians 5 verse 21, Isaiah 52 verse 7, 1 John 5 verse 4, Psalm 18 verse 30, Ephesians 5 verse 8, Acts 26 verse 18, John 10 verses 28–29, Hebrews 4 verse 12, 2 Timothy 2 verse 15, Colossians 2 verses 14–15Make sure you subscribe to this channel and follow us on all our platforms to always stay up to date with our latest content!And you can always head over to our website for any general information! https://godspeak.comPrayer/NeedsIf you have any needs, or have a willingness to be used to meet various need in the body, please email info@godspeak.com.

Message Take Aways:1. Paul admonished children, parents, servants, and masters to honor the Lord in their various stations reminding us that whatever seasons we are in we are to view them as a stewardship and opportunity to glorify God—“And whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.” Colossians 3:172. Paul's exhortation to take up the armor of God serves to remind that we are in a spiritual battle in which we must rely on the Lord and His resources to be victorious—“And the God of peace will crush Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.” Romans 16:203. Paul desired that his fellow believers would be informed of his ministry affairs and be comforted by all that the Lord was doing both in and through him despite his chains—“Brethren, join in following my example, and note those who so walk, as you have us for a pattern.” Philippians 3:17

From Pastor David Peck | From the sermon series, Family Discipleship.  Because God created and instituted the family to display His glory, we will study His word to see more clearly how the roles He has given us reveal His character to us individually, as families, as a church and to the world around us.

Who are you, really? In a culture rife with comparison, the question of identity is one that tends to plague many of us. Is your identity anchored in things such as your accomplishments, your net worth, your social media presence—or in God's purpose and plan for your life?

The Full Armor of God

We are living in a time when the wrong fights are consuming God's people. In Part Two of our Heal Our Land series, Pastor Ryan Windauer brings a powerful and convicting message: The enemy isn't your neighbor, your family, your church, or your nation. The real fight is spiritual. 2 Chronicles 7:14 reminds us that healing begins with humility, prayer, and turning back to God. And in Ephesians 6, Paul declares that our battle is not against flesh and blood, but against the rulers and powers of darkness. Too often, we let the enemy divide us, tricking us into fighting each other instead of fighting him. This message calls us to choose our enemy, choose our weapon, and choose our side. Will we pick up the world's weapons—politics, social media, and violence—or will we take up God's weapons—love, prayer, unity, worship, and the Gospel? The choice is urgent. A house divided cannot stand, and a church divided cannot fight. Healing comes when we stand together, when we love even our enemies, and when we refuse to let pride keep us from God's presence. This is not the season for indecision. Choose today whom you will serve.

Ephesians 6 isn't just words on a page, it's a battle plan for everyday life. Paul reminds us that the fight isn't against people, it's against the enemy who whispers lies and tries to steal our joy. But God hasn't left us unarmed. He's given us the armor of truth, righteousness, faith, salvation, and His […] The post Ephesians 6: Standing Firm first appeared on The Nomad Pastor.

I think it's hard as American Christians to understand what it means to suffer for Christ. Our suffering for the most part is not physical. But if we live for Christ, we will experience persecution. So, what should our response to persecution be?

Ephesians 6:17 calls us to take up the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. But what does it look like to use God's word as a weapon in everyday battles?In this week's episode, Angie and Katie unpack how the sword of the Spirit is more than head knowledge. It's Scripture lived out. When we let truth shape our thoughts, guide our decisions, and speak into our pain, we fight back against the enemy's lies with the very strength God supplies.Through word studies, commentary insights, and personal stories, we explore how the Holy Spirit brings Scripture to life within us, reminding us of what is true, equipping us to stand firm, and guiding us to walk in victory. The sword of the Spirit is a gift. And when we raise it, we move forward in power that isn't ours but His. Ephesians 6:17b (NIV)and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. https://livesteadyon.com/ Free Resource: Armor of God Quick Reference GuideLooking for a simple and powerful way to keep the truths of Ephesians 6 close at hand?

Reach Out: Please include your email and I will get back to you. Thanks!Ephesians 6Relationships continue to be featured in this letter. Children must obey and honor their parents, receiving God's blessing if they do. Parents are called to raise their children with discipline and instruction in the Lord. Servants and masters are reminded to treat each other with respect, knowing that God is the ultimate Master. Christians must wear the full armor of God to stand against the devil's schemes. This includes the belt of truth, the breastplate of righteousness, the shoes of peace, the shield of faith, the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is God's Word. Paul emphasizes the power of prayer, encouraging constant communication with God. He concludes with a call to boldness in sharing the gospel, reminding believers to stand firm and trust in God's strength. We are called to obey God, honoring those in authority, and treating others with respect and integrity. In our daily lives, we must recognize that we are in a spiritual battle and cannot rely on our own strength. We need to put on the full armor of God daily, standing firm in truth, righteousness, peace, faith, and salvation. God's Word is our weapon, and prayer should be our constant connection to Him. When challenges arise, we must remember that our strength comes from God, not ourselves. By staying rooted in Him, we can resist temptation and boldly share the gospel with those around us. Walking in His power enables us to live faithfully and confidently in every aspect of our lives. Glorious God, strengthen us to stand firm in Your power and to demonstrate Your will in our family and all relationships. Clothe us in Your armor so we may resist the enemy's attacks. Fill us with truth, righteousness, and peace, and increase our faith to extinguish every doubt and temptation. Protect our minds with the assurance of salvation and equip us with Your Word to fight spiritual battles. Teach us to pray constantly, always seeking Your guidance daily. Help us to be bold in sharing the gospel and to walk in obedience and integrity. Prepare us to be used by You. Thought Questions: -       This chapter features authority constructs: parent/child and master/slave. Why is it vital to be Christ-like on both sides of these relationships? -       How do you put on the full armor of God? What are your habits? More importantly, how does Christ's strength help you when you do this? -       “Pray at all times in the Spirit” (v18). What does it mean to pray in connection with the Holy Spirit, and how does He help you in your prayers?
