During the beauty of the Advent Season there is little focus on the brutality going on with Herod massacring all the male children 2 years old and under born in Bethlehem and the surrounding districts. There was a spiritual war going on attempting to get rid of Jesus and that spiritual war is still going on today.
While the enemy failed at destroying Jesus at His birth, the enemy is still trying to get rid of the message of Jesus. ...

"Is this passage about submission and leadership?
‘You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.’ (Inigo Montoya, The Princess Bride)
Paul used a literary pattern that is seen regularly in the Hebrew Bible - what's sometimes termed ‘jump, jump, high jump.’
Jump 1 = Ephesians 5:15-18
Jump 2 = Ephesians 5:19-21
Jump 3 = Ephesians 5:22 to the high point of verse 32 and back down to 6:9

Have you ever thought about what "walking worthy of our calling" should look like in practical terms? Is it in keeping a strict moral standard? Presenting a "good witness" to society? Giving benevolently to those less fortunate than us? Paul may startle you with his answer in Ephesians 5. Is the church getting it right? Or are we missing the boat?" Listen as Julie Coleman presents the sure-fire ways, we ca...

This week Steve Coleman teaches from Ephesians 4:17-32. He says, "The message of the book of Ephesians has stressed that we should 'walk in a manner worthy' of our calling in Jesus. As we continue in chapter 4, this 'walk' is described in very practical terms and we are introduced to ways that we can change our behavior from old patterns to new."
Every person who is born again into the family of God, who is built as a living stone into the temple of God, who serves in that temple as a priest of God, and finally, who becomes part of the one Body of Christ, is given something vital, something crucial, to contribute. The apostle Paul talked about gifts given to us by God, through the power of Christ via his Spirit. To develop and use our gifts benefits us and the whole Body, t...

What was the mystery that had remained hidden for thousands of years? We look back now, and it seems so obvious! But in Paul's day, that wasn't the case. God was revealing new facets of the mystery even as dictated the words to his scribe—and "this is by God's glorious grace!" he wrote. But people were having a tough time dealing with the implications. God's revealed mystery of uniting gentile believer...
We continue our series in the book of Ephesians. Ephesus was a major commercial center in the Roman world with a population of around 250,000. The city also had a significant Jewish community: estimates put the Jewish population at 20,000 to 25,000. In the last part of chapter 2, Paul continues to write about the marvels of our salvation, but focuses in on the Gentile majority. Listen to see what Steve Coleman says about the Gentil...

In the days and weeks after Pentecost, it must have seemed like a glorious time as people broke bread together in each other's homes, and soaked in the apostles' teaching. Peter and John were publicly healing people, thousands believed in Jesus, and the gospel began to sweep through even Samaria. But trouble soon came. First, John and Peter were arrested. Then the Greek widows were not being treated fairly, and more leade...
Before his ascension Jesus provides teaching concerning the meaning and significance of his death and resurrection. Luke 24:44-49 focuses on Old Testament prophecy concerning God’s plan. Listen as Jon shares his insights into this great commission.
According to Jesus' 'greatest commandments,' we need to be occupied with love for God and love for others. Love is an important theme of the New Testament. John writes that God is love. Not that God is loving, or God has love. Since God is love, when we encounter him and get to know him, we can't help but be affected by that love. Have you ever thought about the ways God's love has impacted your life with H...
New Hope Chapel has had women teachers for a long time, and about five years ago, New Hope also began recognizing women as elders. Around the same time, we decided to phase out the language of deacons and elders and move into the language of a pastoral team and a teaching team. We know there are many examples of women as disciples in the New Testament--Mary Magdalene, Joanna, Susanna, Martha and Mary of Bethany, and many others. In...
Has it ever felt that God has let you down? Maybe it was unanswered prayer—a plea for His help, or claiming a promise He made but did not fulfill it. This week, Julie Coleman shares her message on 'The Unexpected God'. Listen and see how He works in unexpected ways--more often than we think!
