“God’s Holy Temple - The Church” Ephesians 2:19-22 July 26, 2020 Pastor Tony Felich ----more---- Ephesians 2:19 So then you are no longer strangers and aliens, but you are fellow citizens with the saints and members of the household of God, [20] built on the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Christ Jesus himself being the cornerstone, [21] in whom the whole structure, being joined together, grows into a holy temple in the Lord. [22] In him you also are being built together into a dwelling place for God by the Spirit.   As God’s view of Christ’s Church is understood, our security, unity, and witness will become greater.  We are citizens in God’s Kingdom (19a)    We are members of God’s Family (19b)    We are part of God’s Holy Temple (20-22)

“A Single New Humanity” Ephesians 2:11-22 July 19, 2020 Pastor Tony Felich ----more---- Ephesians 2:11 Therefore remember that at one time you Gentiles in the flesh, called “the uncircumcision” by what is called the circumcision, which is made in the flesh by hands—[12] remember that you were at that time separated from Christ, alienated from the commonwealth of Israel and strangers to the covenants of promise, having no hope and without God in the world. [13] But now in Christ Jesus you who once were far off have been brought near by the blood of Christ. [14] For he himself is our peace, who has made us both one and has broken down in his flesh the dividing wall of hostility [15] by abolishing the law of commandments expressed in ordinances, that he might create in himself one new man in place of the two, so making peace, [16] and might reconcile us both to God in one body through the cross, thereby killing the hostility. [17] And he came and preached peace to you who were far off and peace to those who wer

"Wisdom & Words" Selected Proverbs                              July 12, 2020 Pastor Nathan Currey  ----more---- Proverbs 18:1 Whoever isolates himself seeks his own desire; he breaks out against all sound judgment. 2 A fool takes no pleasure in understanding, but only in expressing his opinion.  4 The words of a man's mouth are deep waters; the fountain of wisdom is a bubbling brook. 6 A fool's lips walk into a fight, and his mouth invites a beating. 7 A fool's mouth is his ruin, and his lips are a snare to his soul. 8 The words of a whisperer are like delicious morsels; they go down into the inner parts of the body. 13 If one gives an answer before he hears, it is his folly and shame. 17 The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him. 19 A brother offended is more unyielding than a strong city, and quarreling is like the bars of a castle. 20 From the fruit of a man's mouth his stomach is satisfied; he is satisfied by the yield of his lips. 21 Death and life are in

"Wisdom & Money" Selected Proverbs July 5, 2020 Pastor Nathan Currey  ----more---- Proverbs 30:7 Two things I ask of you; deny them not to me before I die: 8 Remove far from me falsehood and lying; give me neither poverty nor riches; feed me with the food that is needful for me, 9 lest I be full and deny you and say, “Who is the Lord?” or lest I be poor and steal and profane the name of my God.   God Gives Money   Hazardous Money Habits  Helpful Money Habits  Christ Redeems Our View of Money

“Wisdom & Intimacy” Selected Proverbs June 28, 2020 Pastor Nathan Currey  ----more---- Proverbs 5:15 Drink water from your own cistern, flowing water from your own well. 16 Should your springs be scattered abroad, streams of water in the streets? 17 Let them be for yourself alone, and not for strangers with you. 18 Let your fountain be blessed, and rejoice in the wife of your youth, 19 a lovely deer, a graceful doe. Let her breasts fill you at all times with delight; be intoxicated always in her love. 20 Why should you be intoxicated, my son, with a forbidden woman and embrace the bosom of an adulteress? 21 For a man's ways are before the eyes of the Lord, and he ponders all his paths. 22 The iniquities of the wicked ensnare him, and he is held fast in the cords of his sin. 23 He dies for lack of discipline, and because of his great folly he is led astray.   God Created Intimacy   God Dishonoring Intimacy is a Curse   God Honoring Intimacy is a Blessing   Christ Redeems Our Brokenness

“But God…” Ephesians 2:1-7 June 14, 2020 Pastor Tony Felich  ----more---- Ephesians 2:1 And you were dead in the trespasses and sins [2] in which you once walked, following the course of this world, following the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that is now at work in the sons of disobedience—[3] among whom we all once lived in the passions of our flesh, carrying out the desires of the body and the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, like the rest of mankind. [4] But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, [5] even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—[6] and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, [7] so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.  Our situation apart from Christ could not be worse…but our situation in union with Christ could not be better.   Dead apart from Chr
