When we wait for Jesus, we wait with Jesus.

Troubling elections! Political unrest! Wars! Economic uncertainty! It is easy to feel discouraged and cynical. Yet the church is called to hope!
Our hope is that there will come a day when wrongs will be righted, where suffering will end, where people will be united and peace will reign. Our hope means that how we live now matters. Our lives and the way we choose to live them have eternal significance. Not only this, but the church has a great part to play in God’s eternal plan. So, how do we live?
This Sunday we will be lighting our first Advent Candle of hope and wrapping up our study on Ephesians.

There is a clear line between old and new, between life and death. A life made new by redeeming grace will point towards Jesus. While there are no perfect Christians, we are image bearers of Christ, messengers of reconciliation, forgiven and unconditionally loved, that we may love others in Jesus’ name.

As we continue to journey through Ephesians, this week we remember the importance of unity in the Church and what healthy maturity looks like, in Christ.

You have faith in Jesus - so what? Ephesians 1-3 describes the amazing work God has accomplished in bringing all things in heaven and earth under the authority of Jesus Christ. Beginning in chapter 4, Paul asks, "So what?" What is the evidence that we're under the authority of Jesus? What difference does it make in our lives? That is the challenge we'll be wrestling with this Sunday.

God has the ability to do far more than we ever ask or imagine, but often we don’t ask and can’t imagine. Join us this week as we remember the reality that Christ can dwell in our hearts through faith. When our lives are found in Him, we can envision a much different (and much better!) future. As our hearts respond to His great love, we as the Church, become an unstoppable force for good in the world.

When people think about “Church” so many notions come to mind. Is it the building? The service? The music? The sermon? The people? Admittedly, there is no perfect church, but The Church is a beautiful reality, marked distinctively by Jesus.
Yes, it is a gathering of people who worship Jesus, but its more: The Church reveals the wisdom of God, especially when men and women approach God with freedom and confidence in Jesus. Our lives and the way we love others is a direct reflection of our awareness of God’s love for us. Join us this Sunday, as we remember and celebrate what God has done for us.

Looking at Ephesians 2:11-22 this week, we will see a call for unity in Christ. We often say how diverse our church is — so many backgrounds, yet we have one Saviour. We must remember that our differences are by design. He is building a global kingdom that reflects His saving power and wonderful creativity. Mark Dever remarks, "The Church is the Gospel made visible.” While we may not be the same, we have been made one in Jesus. As our church continues to grow, my prayer is that our unity around Jesus would become influentially clear in our city.
