Current Sermon Series
September 6, 2026
We might only be 14 verses from the end of the Ephesian letter (our reading this week is Ephesians 6:10-14a), but like driving the Highways of Texas and slowing down through each town, we are about to pump the brakes, reduce our speed, and pay careful attention to Paul's final verses. I've never appreciated before how this famous section, known as the 'armor of God', is the culmination of the entire letter. This week we will examine the 'why of spiritual armor'. We will look at where Christians radically misunderstand discussions about 'spiritual warfare' and how Paul means for us to 'get it right'. In addition, we will look at the first piece of the 'armor of God' which is not 'armor' at all but rather a belt. We will examine not only what it means to fasten the 'belt of truth' around our waists but also why the image of a 'belt' is instructive and important in itself. I look forward to seeing you on Sunday morning for spirit filled worship, friendly fellowship and an encounter with our Living and Loving God.
