The Dance of Faith
20/08/2023 Duração: 31minWhile people often talk about faith as though it were a fixed position of certainty, the Bible shows faith to be far more fluid. There’s a movement to it, a dance of sorts between belief and unbelief, devotion and spiritual dryness, strength and sorrow, love and loss.

Invisible Worlds
13/08/2023 Duração: 33min"Best things dwell out of sight," Emily Dickinson once wrote. It can be hard to believe what we cannot see, but so much of our life—our loves, our principles, our hopes—cannot be seen. Paul ends the letter to the Ephesians with a reminder of an invisible world beyond our vision, where good and evil struggle, and where the grace of God will ultimately win.

A Profound Mystery
09/07/2023 Duração: 36minWhile it's an important topic, marriage can be a very sensitive subject. How should we think about it--its purpose, potential, and the pain that's often associated with it?

Experiencing Boundless Love
02/07/2023 Duração: 34minPaul's second and final prayer for the people in Ephesus asks them to see that the highest ambition of our faith is to know and experience the limitless love of God.

21/05/2023 Duração: 33minHow does Paul open his letter to the Ephesians, which he wrote while chained in a Roman prison?

Are there lessons we can learn to help us face our own challenges?
