Eph. 4:17 Now this I say and testify in the Lord, that you must no longer walk as the Gentiles do, in the futility of their minds. 18 They are darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God because of the ignorance that is in them, due to their hardness of heart. 19 They have become callous and have given themselves up to sensuality, greedy to practice every kind of impurity. 20 But that is not the way you learned Christ!— 21 assuming that you have heard about him and were taught in him, as the truth is in Jesus, 22 to put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, 23 and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, 24 and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.

God says he doesn't care how messy we are, because his relationship with us isn't about what we've done, but about what he's done. So what does that mean for us? Wes Martin explores Ephesians 2:1-10.

Luke 10:25-37 - Who Is My Neighbour?
We all know we're supposed to help people, but who? And how? And what do we do with the fact that we don't do that very well? Are we bad people? How can we be better? What help is there for us when we need it? What is our hope? That's what we look at in this sermon from Wes Martin on Luke 10:25-37

Ephesians 1:15-23 - The Politics of Spirituality
