Ephesians 4~ Discover your God-given gift


Hey Reader!

Did you know God has given us each a special gift to serve the church?

It's true! Paul tells us in Ephesians 4 about five specific gifts: apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers. I believe God has called you to do great things for His Kingdom. But it starts with understanding the gifts He's given you and walking in unity with your brothers and sisters in Christ.

To fully grasp this, take a moment to dive into the full Ephesians 4 Bible study video ​HERE​. Then, go deeper with the ​Ephesians Companion Study Guide​ and pray, asking God to show you which of these five gifts He's placed within you.

After the teaching, let's continue the conversation in the comments! I'd love to hear what God is revealing to you through this powerful chapter in Ephesians.

Hey Reader, Welcome to our final week of Do Whatever He Says. Over the past two weeks, we’ve watched Jesus move in powerful ways. In Week 1, we saw how simple obedience positioned the servants for a miracle. In Week 2, we were reminded that our role is not to create the miracle, but to faithfully do what Jesus asks and trust Him with the results. Now, in this final week, we pause at the outcome. Keep reading to see what this final moment reveals and how God may be calling you to take your...

Hey Reader, Welcome to Week 2 of Do Whatever He Says. Last week, as we concluded our fast on Sunday, we were reminded that worship and intimacy with God are not separate from obedience; they actually fuel it. That is the heart behind this three-week Do Whatever He Says series. As our intimacy with Him deepens, our hearts become more responsive to His voice and more willing to do whatever He says. In Week 1 of our Do Whatever He Says devotional series, we shifted our perspective from simply...

Hey Reader, These Weekend in the Word emails have quietly become some of my favorites to send. There’s something about intentionally preparing to pause. To sit with Jesus. To slow the swirl of the week and let the Word settle in. It helps me enter the weekend with purpose, and I pray it’s doing the same for you. This weekend, I’m looking forward to wrapping up the book of Job. It’s a book I’ve read many times, but this time, the Lord has been showing me something deeper—not just about Job’s...
