Ephesians 2:11-22 | 'In Christ' Changes Everything (week 5)

Pastor Johan Leclaire | rest Church Big Idea: WHEN WE SEE WHAT GOD HAS DONE FOR US, IT SHOULD CHANGE HOW WE LIVE FOR HIM. Not out of duty, but out of love. Ephesians 2 reminds us that we were SEPARATED from Christ, FAR OFF, WITHOUT HOPE and WITHOUT GOD. We were on the outside looking in. But then everything changes: BUT NOW, IN CHRIST JESUS. Those who were once FAR OFF have been BROUGHT NEAR by the blood of Christ. Jesus didn’t merely restore us to God, He also brought us back to ONE ANOTHER. He tore down the dividing wall of hostility, made peace and created ONE NEW PEOPLE in Himself. In Christ, we are no longer strangers and outsiders. We BELONG. We are fellow citizens, members of God’s FAMILY and part of something much bigger than ourselves. And this new family has a foundation. Jesus Christ Himself is the CORNERSTONE, the One who gives His Church its alignment, stability, identity and unity. But God isn’t finished building. In Christ, we are being joined together into a HOLY TEMPLE, a DWELLING PLACE FOR GOD by the Spirit. Jesus restored us. He established us. And He is building us together. When we see what God has done for us, it should change how we live for Him... not out of duty, but out of love.

Ephesians 2:1-10 | From Dead To Different (week 4)

Pastor Cody Walls | rest Church Big Idea: YOU WERE DEAD. BUT GOD. NOW LIVE DIFFERENT. Ephesians 2 does not describe us as sick, struggling or mostly dead. It says we were DEAD in our sin, BOUND by the course of this world and CONDEMNED as children of wrath. But then come two of the greatest words in Scripture: BUT GOD. Because He is rich in mercy and great in love, God MADE US ALIVE with Christ, RAISED US UP with Him and SEATED US with Him in the heavenly places. We are saved by grace through faith, not by our works, not by our record and not by anything we bring to the table. And grace does not just save us from something. It saves us for something. We are HIS WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ Jesus for good works God prepared beforehand for us to walk in. You were dead. But God. Now live different.

Ephesians 1:15-23 | Power You Can't Measure (week 3)

Pastor Adam Bretz | rest Church Big Idea: YOU HAVE MORE THAN YOU CAN SEE What if the problem isn’t that God needs to give you more... but that you need your eyes opened to what you already have in Christ? In Ephesians 1, Paul prays that the eyes of our hearts would be enlightened so we can know God better and SEE what He has already given us: a hope we haven’t fully grasped, an inheritance we can’t fully comprehend and a power we can’t measure. And when Paul wants us to understand what that immeasurable power looks like, he points us to Jesus: RAISED from the dead, SEATED at the right hand of God, ABOVE every power, and HEAD over all things for His Church. Whatever feels over your head is still under His feet.

Ephesians 1:7-14 | Covered By Promise, Called By Purpose (week 2)

Pastor Cody Walls | rest Church Big Idea: GOD DOES NOT JUST PROMISE YOU. HE GUARANTEES YOU. How secure are the promises of God? In Ephesians 1, Paul reminds us that our salvation isn't hanging on our ability to hold onto God... it's secured by what God has already done in Christ. We have been redeemed by His blood, forgiven by His grace, given an inheritance and sealed with the promised Holy Spirit as the guarantee of what is still to come. In Christ, you are covered, smothered, filled, sealed and kept until the day of redemption. God didn't just make you a promise. He put His Spirit down as the guarantee that He will get you home. #DefinitelyAtoned SCRIPTURE: Ephesians 1:7–14 FOLLOW US AS WE FOLLOW JESUS: https://linktr.ee/restchurch.net #therestisyettocome #Ephesians #CoveredByPromise #CalledByPurpose #InChrist #HolySpirit #Redemption #Grace #Forgiveness #Sealed #DefinitelyAtoned #Gospel #BibleTeaching #Jesus #restChurch #NewIdentity

Ephesians 1:1-6 | Wanted From The Start (week 1)

Pastor Adam Bretz | rest Church Big Idea: IDENTITY IS RECEIVED, NOT ACHIEVED. Who gets to define who you are? Our culture says identity is something you build, earn or discover. But before Paul tells us what to do in Ephesians, he reminds us of what God has already done. In Christ, God names us, blesses us and adopts us into His family. Your deepest identity isn't rooted in your performance, your past or what others say about you... it's rooted in what God says is true. Because when you know whose you are, it changes who you are. #SAINT SCRIPTURE: Ephesians 1:1–6 FOLLOW US AS WE FOLLOW JESUS: https://linktr.ee/restchurch.net #therestisyettocome #Ephesians #WantedFromTheStart #Identity #InChrist #Grace #Adoption #Gospel #BibleTeaching #Jesus #restChurch #NewIdentity

One Heart, One Soul | Do It Again (week 4)

Pastor Cody Walls | rest Church Big Idea: YOU'LL KNOW THE FIRE FELL BY HOW WE LOVE EACH OTHER. What does revival actually look like when God moves among His people? In Acts, the evidence wasn’t only wind, fire, miracles or a loud room... it was a church becoming one. The believers devoted themselves to the Word, prayer, fellowship and the table. They held their stuff loosely and held each other tightly. Jesus said the world would know we belong to Him by the way we love one another... and that remains one of the clearest fingerprints of God on His church. Because when the fire really falls, it doesn’t make us proud... it makes us one.

When The Fire Falls | Do It Again (week 3)

Pastor John Wisdom | rest Church Big Idea: RAISE YOUR SAIL Throughout Scripture, God has always been the One who sends the fire and the wind. Our responsibility has never been to manufacture His power, it has always been to prepare our hearts in obedience. From the upper room at Pentecost to Elijah rebuilding the altar, we see the same pattern repeated: a prepared people and then God moves. As we wait on the Lord, becoming more intertwined with Him through prayer, His Word and obedience, we position ourselves for what only He can do. Because a sail's responsibility has never been to create the wind... its responsibility is to be ready when the wind comes.

Tear It Down | Do It Again (week 2)

Pastor Carl Nicholson | rest Church Big Idea: AFTER GOD HOLDS UP THE MIRROR... HE HANDS YOU A HAMMER God's movement in our lives doesn't stop with us seeing our sin, it continues when we respond in repentance. Through the story of King Josiah, we find that God's Word doesn't simply expose the idols in our lives; it calls us to destroy them. Repentance is more than feeling sorry... it's intentionally removing whatever has taken God's place in your heart. Because anything that sits on the throne of your life instead of God is an idol, and idols always make terrible gods.

Do We Know What We’re Asking? | Do It Again (week 1)

Pastor Cody Walls | rest Church Big Idea: BEFORE GOD SENDS THE FIRE, HE HOLDS UP THE MIRROR. Before we ask God to move in power, we must first allow Him to reveal what’s really happening in our hearts. Through Jesus’ letter to the church in Laodicea and Isaiah’s desperate prayer for revival, we discover that God doesn’t begin renewal by changing our circumstances... He begins by changing us. The mirror of God’s Word exposes what we’ve grown comfortable ignoring, calling us to stop saying, “I’m fine,” and instead pray the dangerous prayer: “Search me, O God.” Because before God sends the fire, He always holds up the mirror.

YOUR MOUTH ON MISSION | My Big Fat Mouth (week 5)

Pastor Johann Leclaire | rest Church Your Mouth On Mission | My Big Fat Mouth (Week 5) Big Idea: THE MOST IMPORTANT THING YOU MAY EVER DO… IS SAY THE RIGHT THING… TO THE RIGHT PERSON… AT THE RIGHT TIME. Our words were never meant to stop with us. Through Colossians 4:5–6 and 1 Peter 3:15, we discover that every conversation is an opportunity to point someone toward Jesus. Whether we’re speaking to ourselves, encouraging our familieS or sharing hope with the world, God calls us to speak with wisdom, grace, gentleness and truth. Because our witness isn’t just built by what we believe, but by the words we choose to say at the right time to the right person.
