Well, hey, and welcome to the Become Better podcast. I am your host, Nate, and I am so glad that you are here.

On today's episode, we have Ken and Corey on the show, and we dive into an update on some of the cool things that are happening out at our Prescott Valley; then, we dive into talking about Sunday's message and answering questions that have been submitted.

With Thanksgiving on the way this week, we just wanted to give you guys an update that the office will be closed on Wednesday through Friday. We hope you have a great Thanksgiving and see you guys Sunday at either campus.

Finally, if you haven’t listened to Sunday's message, I want to encourage you to stop here and listen to it, as it will help make this conversation more meaningful.

Well, without further ado, we hope you enjoy this conversation.

Chapter 2 begins with Paul teaching the good news, but to accurately teach the good news, people need to hear the bad news. Paul shares the bad news first. There is a cultural idea that we are all good people: since we are all children of God we must do something really bad to have that status removed. "Good” is our default position., and we have to behave our way to “bad.”

However, that isn’t what scripture teaches. We begin as those under the wrath of God, and without Christ, that is where we will remain.

Well hey, and welcome to the Becoming Better podcast

On today’s episode, Jason Josh and I sit down and talk about our prayer life, how we need to be closer to Jesus, and how we can do that in our lives. If you have missed Sunday's message, then I want to encourage you to pause it and give that a listen, as it will help make this conversation make more sense to you. Well, without further ado, we hope that you enjoy this conversation.

After Paul's doxology, he turns his attention to the church. He is overwhelmed with gratitude for them and offers one of the highest and richest prayers in all of scripture for them.

Well, hey, and welcome to the Become Better podcast. I am your host, Nate, and I am so glad you guys are here.

This week our study of the church of Ephesus moves us into the book of Ephesians. This letter was likely written around 60 AD. Paul left his ministry in Ephesus around 56 AD. He went to Jerusalem and was arrested and eventually was taken to Rome. It was from his Roman detention that Paul writes this letter back to the people he spent over 2 years doing ministry with. The letter to the Ephesians begins with a reminder of all that comes with being “In Christ”. This term is used in some fashion 9 times in the first 14 verses.

Welcome to the Becoming Better Podcast. Before we jump in I would love to stop and tell you about some events happening around campus this week. On Tuesday at 5 pm, we will have our community meal. So come by and share a meal with us. Also, on Tuesday night, we have Celebrate Recovery, which meets in the student building at 6 pm. Child care is provided.

Jason, Josh, and I jump in to talk about last Sunday's message and answer some questions that you guys submitted. If you haven't listened to last Sunday's message, I want to encourage you to stop here and listen, as it will help make this conversation make more sense to you. Well, without further ado, we hope you enjoy this conversation.

After the riot Paul leaves Ephesus. A year later he makes his way back to the area, but doesn’t have time to stay. So he calls for the Elders to meet him in Miletus. He has a message for them as they lead the church in Ephesus.
