Sermons

As part of our vision Sunday, Jamie speaks on Paul's prayer for the Ephesians, a prayer that is ultimately Paul's desire for them to know God more. From this Jamie speaks about our head, heart & hands as we move forward wanting to also grow in knowing God.

This week, we are joined by Mike Nicholls from Luton Christian Fellowship. Mike shares with us from Isaiah 54 on the theme of Making Room in anticipate of what God wants to do, despite the uncomfortable challenges that may bring.

We continue our series in Ephesians as Paul thanks God for the Ephesians faith. This week, Jamie reflects on Paul's thankfulness for these people & their faith. Mak (Kenya) & Emma (Rwanda) share as part of this message on what God is doing in these nations, so that we can give thanks for God is doing in a similar way.

We have explored Paul's praise, which flows from his rich gospel understanding. This concludes with His praise of the Holy Spirit's work in our salvation. The promised Holy Spirit is both the seal that authenticates our salvation and the down payment that guarantees it.

Pastor Jamie explains from Ephesians 1 how God made known to us the mystery  
of his will and according to his good pleasure that he purposed in Christ  
as a plan for the right time.

Today, we read Ephesians 1:5-6 and Jamie's reflections on the truth that, in love, God has adopted us as sons in the Son, beloved in the Beloved One. And in doing so, God display the glory of His love & mercy, that forms our praise. 

Jamie continues our Ephesians series in 1v4 as Paul praises God that we are chosen in Christ before the foundation of world. In this message Jamie explores this theme of being chosen by God, the doctrine of election, and its purpose that as His people we live holy & blameless.

Jamie begins a new series from Ephesians this week. In this message, he outlines the context of the letter and how that can help remind us that despite it being tough, we are called to worship faithfully. And then, he begins to explore the content of our praise to God. And we will build on this week by week.

This week, we have Chris Cartwright with us as our speaker. Chris has been Elim's General superintendent since 2016, leading our movement into our priorities of Making disciples, Growing Churches, Developing Leaders, and reaching Nations.
