A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” What if spiritual maturity isn’t just about knowing more about Jesus, but actually becoming more like Him? In Ephesians 4:17–32, Paul invites us to take an honest look at the “old wardrobe” we may still be wearing: patterns like anger, bitterness, harsh words, and unforgiveness that no longer match who we are in Christ. But God doesn’t just call us to throw off the old; He invites us to put on the character of Jesus through truth, kindness, generosity, self-control, and forgiveness. This message will challenge us to ask: What old way of life is the Holy Spirit asking me to take off, and what new way of Christ is He inviting me to put on?

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” After three chapters celebrating God’s grace, Paul turns to the practical question: How should we live because of it? In Ephesians 4:1–16, we’ll explore how walking worthy of our calling means protecting unity, using our unique gifts, and helping the Body of Christ grow in love and maturity.

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” In Ephesians 3:14–21, Paul’s prayer reminds us that our greatest need isn’t external success, but internal strength rooted in God’s love. As we allow Christ to fully make His home within us, His love reshapes who we are from the inside out. Paul invites us to live, lead, and parent from that foundation—trusting that God can do far more through us than we could ever imagine.

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” God’s plan has always been far greater than we could imagine. In Ephesians 3:1–13, Paul unveils the mystery of the gospel: through Jesus, people from every background are brought together into one family and one shared inheritance. As we discover the beauty of God’s purpose for His church, we also discover the unique role each of us plays in His unfolding plan.

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” Division comes naturally. We build walls between people based on politics, culture, values, backgrounds, and even our preferences within the church. Yet Ephesians 2 reveals that Jesus came to do the exact opposite. Through His death and resurrection, He tears down the walls that separate us and creates one new family united by grace. In Christ, outsiders become family, enemies become neighbors, and the church becomes a living picture of God’s reconciling love. The question is not whether Jesus has torn down the walls—the question is whether we will live like they are truly gone.

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” Most people think the Gospel is about becoming a better person, but Ephesians 2 tells a much deeper story. Paul reminds us that sin doesn’t just wound us, it leaves us spiritually dead and unable to save ourselves. Yet in the middle of humanity’s worst news come two of the most hope-filled words in Scripture: “But God.” This message is about the God who meets us with mercy, raises us to new life through Jesus, and transforms us into His masterpiece filled with purpose and grace.

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” It’s easy for faith to become something we understand in our heads but rarely experience in our daily lives. Paul’s prayer invites believers into something deeper, where knowing God becomes personal and transformative. In Christ we already have full access to God’s presence, a living hope for His plan, and the power to change how we live. This is a journey from distant belief to real connection, a call to step into a relationship with God that is active, growing, and alive.

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” In this episode of Beyond Sunday, the pastors reflect on Mother’s Day at Newbreak and the powerful reminder that holidays can carry both joy and pain. The conversation explores the relationship between faith and psychology, why discipleship cannot be replaced by self-help, and how God often works through wise, Christ-centered counseling and care.

Along the way, they celebrate stories of life change happening across Newbreak and invite listeners to continue living out their faith beyond Sunday.

A message from the series “Book of Ephesians.” Before the foundation of the world, God saw us, loved us, and chose us to be part of His family through Jesus. Our salvation is not something we could ever earn or achieve on our own—it is the beautiful gift of God’s grace, poured out through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. And God didn’t leave us wondering if we truly belong to Him; He gave us the Holy Spirit as His promise and guarantee that we are His now and forever. In light of all He has done, our hearts can’t help but respond with worship, gratitude, and lives that bring Him praise.

A message from the series “I Am.” Lasting personal change and spiritual growth come from staying deeply connected to Jesus, the “true vine.” As God lovingly prunes harmful patterns and shapes our thoughts, we are called to actively examine the “fruit” of our lives—our behaviors, words, and attitudes—and allow His Spirit to transform us from the inside out. Through consistent spiritual practices and reliance on God as the source of life, believers can experience real change, becoming healthier, more Christlike, and fruitful in their relationships.
