Do you need prayer today? In Ephesians 3, Paul prays for Believers. He asks God for four things on our behalf: (1) that we would be strengthened spiritually, (2) that Christ would “dwell” in our hearts, (3) that we would comprehend the expanse of God’s love for us, and (4) that we would be filled with the fullness of God. In this study, Pastor Gary breaks down Ephesians 3 and prays these four points over us.

We are headed into an AI-dominated world. Some might think that statement an exaggeration, but if you turn on the news, you’ll quickly notice that artificial intelligence is everywhere you look and negatively impacting the next generation. In today’s message, Pastor Austin addresses this subject directly; encouraging the church to think Biblically about the rise of AI, its current impact on the modern church, and the way it may be used in the future deception that is to come.

An in-depth study of the mystery of the time of lawlessness in the Bible.

Pastor Garid Beeler teaches from 1 Peter 1 on finding living hope in the midst of suffering and trials. Even when faith is tested, God is refining and strengthening His people for His glory. Be encouraged to stand firm, resist the enemy, and trust that every trial has purpose — shaping you more into the image of Christ.

An in-depth study of the mystery of the Rapture.

We are all born dead. Does that sound like a contradiction? It’s not. This paradox is the theme of Ephesians 2: that we are all born physically alive but spiritually dead, and that the only way we are made spiritually alive is by trusting Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. He takes our dead lives and makes them alive! Paul tells us there are three things that work to keep us dead, and three things that work to make us alive. Find out in today’s study as Pastor Gary shares a message entitled, “Dead or Alive?”

An in-depth study of 2 Kings 23:30-25:20.

We are living in a world of identity confusion. Our culture is wrestling with questions about sexuality, biology, and definitions of “male” and “female.” Would you be surprised to learn that this is nothing new? Ancient cultures wrestled with the same issues, particularly in the city of Ephesus. When Paul stepped into Ephesus to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ, he encountered the same chaos that our culture is experiencing today. In response, he wrote Ephesians 1 to remind us Christians of our identity in Christ, so that we can know who we are and whose we are! Only then will we be able to deliver the Gospel to this identity-confused world.

An in-depth study of 2 Kings 22-23.

There is a principle in life that the Bible teaches called the law of “sowing and reaping.” It’s particularly true for Christians who have a choice about whether they will feed their spirit or their flesh. The spirit is that part within us that is redeemed and eternal; the flesh is unredeemed and temporary. The spirit wants to please the Lord, and the flesh wants to gratify the sinful nature. If we nurture our spiritual nature we will reap eternal life. But if we nurture our fleshly nature, we will reap destruction. Follow along today as Pastor Gary teaches the Biblical principle of sowing and reaping and how it applies to different aspects of life.

When a person becomes a Christian, a battle begins between the flesh and the spirit. The flesh is that part of our lives that desires sinful things; the spirit is that part of our lives that wants to glorify God. Our flesh always wants to dominate, but the Bible tells us to die to self and live in the spirit. Paul writes about this spiritual battle in Galatians 5, and he gives us three practical ways we can win the war within. Follow along in today’s study as Pastor Gary explains this battle of the flesh and spirit.

An in-depth study of 2 Kings 20:11-21:26.

After the assassination of Charlie Kirk, many are feeling grief, anger, and sadness. Paul asked the Galatians, “Have I therefore become your enemy because I tell you the truth?” (Galatians 4:16). Unfortunately, when we live the truth and tell the truth, many will see us as their enemy. Jesus said that some will even hate us (John 15:18-19). Nevertheless, God calls us to love people, to be bold ambassadors of the truth, and to be unashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ. It’s time for the church to be the voice of Biblical truth to a dark and evil world!

There are many differences among people—including ethnic, socio-economic, and biological differences. But that does not matter when it comes to our standing in Christ. Paul says that all Believers are ONE in Christ. But the culture views things differently. The culture either denies our differences altogether or exploits our differences to divide people through class warfare and race-baiting. But the church should be the most diverse and unified group of any people on the planet. Join us for today’s Bible study, “One in Christ.”

An in-depth study of 2 Kings 19-20:11.

The Old Testament Law tells us that anyone who violates just one of God’s commandments is guilty of breaking them all, and that every “lawbreaker” is under a curse. But the good news is that Jesus Christ bore the curse intended for us when He was nailed to a tree! Jesus reversed the curse! Follow along in today’s Bible study as Pastor Gary shares the importance of faith over law and how we are justified by faith alone in Christ alone.

Sometimes Christians are reluctant to be bold in their faith for fear of what others may think. Even the apostle Peter briefly fell into this trap, and Paul had to confront him about his hypocrisy. “Quiet Christianity” is when you act one way around some people, and a different way around other people who do not share your beliefs. In today’s study, Pastor Gary gives us steps to overcome “quiet Christianity” so that we can be bold and courageous in our faith.

An in-depth study of 2 Kings 17:34-18:37.

Many well-meaning people believe that being a good person is good enough to get to heaven. But the truth is, there is only one way—salvation is by grace alone through faith alone in Christ alone! Jesus is the only way to Heaven. In the book of Galatians, Paul addresses this important truth and says that any person or demon who tells you a “different gospel” should be accursed! Join Pastor Gary for today’s study from Galatians 1.
