Calvary Church is dedicated to doctrine, and we want you to experience the life change that comes

from knowing God's word and applying it to your life.

So we explain the Bible verse by verse, every chapter, every book, this is expound.

We are in the book of Ephesians. We are going to finish Ephesians chapter 6 tonight.

I know you're thinking bold prediction for Skip Heitzig to make, but we begin in verse 10 of

chapter 6 in order to finish it up. So I think it's a doable goal to finish this book before we get into,

as you heard, First Chronicles next week. Now, I appreciate the announcement to bring somebody

new who's never been to Midweek to come to First Chronicles, but I'm going to warn you, have you ever read First

Chronicles? Because the first nine chapters are a list of genealogical names, which I'll

explain next week. But it could be interesting for somebody's first time, but feel free.

We'd love you to bring as many as you'd like.

But let's have a word of prayer.

Father, thank you for your word.

We derive nourishment.

We derive encouragement, instruction, warning, and at the end of it all, shaping, as you change us, shaping our character

more and more into the image of your son, the Lord Jesus Christ.

There's no one else we would rather be like than him.

And so we pray that your spirit might use the hammer and chisel of your word

to knock off the rough edges of our personalities so that we would

be more and more conform to that image. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen. Of all of the descriptions

that you could think of for a Christian man or woman, I'm thinking

words like encourager, peacemaker, faithful one, of all of the descriptions like that
