It is the greatest sermon, given by the greatest and most influential teacher in all of human history. More than that, it is a timely message from God incarnate to us. For these reasons (and many others) we are going to spend the next months doing a deep dive in Jesus’ Sermon on the Mount.

Ephesians | Week 14 | What are you facing today? In today’s message, we hear Darrell preach from Ephesians 3, learning that Paul, who is in prison, is down on his knees praying what some have called the boldest prayer ever prayed. As you listen, pray God gives you a receptive heart to hear and understand the breadth, and length, and height and depth of the love of Christ, and may you be filled today with the fullness of God. First Baptist Church, Vancouver, BC | May 22, 2011 | Ephesians 3:14-22

Ephesians | Week 13 | In this message, Darrell invites us to Paul’s prison cell, where Paul has gone from preaching the gospel in Ephesians 2, to praying the gospel in this letter to the Ephesians. On his knees, a posture of reverence to God, Paul is praying that the Christians would allow the Holy Spirit, the same Spirit who hovered over the earth to create the world and the same Spirit who hovered over the Virgin to bring the Messiah, to indwell us. The Holy Spirit is the same One who in this moment in history hovers over our lives bringing resurrection life to our inner person even as our outer person decays. Will you invite the Holy Spirit to take residence as Master of your heart? First Baptist Church, Vancouver, BC | May 15, 2011 | Ephesians 3:14-21

Ephesians | Week 12 | When grace grabs hold of us, as seen in the life of the Apostle Paul, it radically changes our lives. As we surrender to Jesus, we become stewards of the mystery of the gospel, ministers in the kingdom, and we find our true identity and place in the family of God. Drawing from the unique call of Jesus upon the life of Paul, Darrell shows who we can become when grace grabs hold of us. We are instructed and reminded that God’s grace saves us and is meant to be passed on to others. “Oh to grace, how great a debtor, daily I’m constrained to be.” First Baptist Church, Vancouver, BC | May 1, 2011 | Ephesians 3:1-13

Ephesians | Week 11 | In this message, Darrel looks at Ephesians 1:15-23, and describes how the same resurrection power that raised Jesus from the dead, is the same power that created the world out of nothing. The amazing news of Easter is that that power is now available to those who believe. And more than just that, this power is now at work IN those who believe. First Baptist Church, Vancouver, BC | April 24, 2011 | Ephesians 1:15-23

Ephesians | Week 10 | In today’s message, from Ephesians 2:11-22, Darrell explains that because of what Jesus did on the cross, Jesus broke down all walls and now, as followers of Jesus, we are granted direct access to the holy God. Jesus is building a new human race through his followers, a new temple, where the creator of ALL things will dwell with us. First Baptist Church, Vancouver, BC | April 10, 2011 | Ephesians 2:11-22
