As believers, our words are meant to edify, build up, and encourage one another. We are to strengthen the faith of those around us, pushing others toward Christ rather than distracting them from Him. In this message on Ephesians 4:29, Nathan reminds us that our tongues are instruments that can be used for good or evil—and all our communication must come under the authority of Jesus Christ.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

Christians are called “believers,” yet most of us separate the concepts of belief and faith in our minds and in how we live. In this episode, Eric and Nathan sit down to talk about the connection between believing and having faith, why faith is critical to our lives, and they give several good (and goofy) illustrations to help us understand that faith (belief) is more than merely a mental activity.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

Every Christian should be ready to share what they have with those in need—whether it be finances, time, resource, or love. In Ephesians 4:28, Paul reminds us that we are to put off the old lifestyle of stealing and passivity and put on hard work so that we always have something to give to others in their time of need.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

Grace truly is amazing. But why?While we have all heard the term "grace" used in church, many of us think of it as "mercy" or the kindness of God … but grace is so … much … more. Scripture says that God's grace is manifold—there are countless layers or "folds" to the beauty and splendor of God's grace.In this episode, Eric and Nathan sit down to discuss how the Bible describes grace and why it truly is amazing.------------For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

Anger is a difficult emotion to deal with in the Christian life. Is it okay to be angry, and if so how do I know if what I'm angry over is a righteous or selfish anger? In this study of Ephesians 4:26-27, Paul argues that while righteous anger is permissible, we should seek to put away all anger from our lives as it can easily become sin, cause division within the body, and become a place of opportunity for the devil.For more information about Daily Thunder and the ministry of Ellerslie Mission Society, please visit: https://ellerslie.com/.

Within the Church, the Holy Spirit is typically either an exciting subject or something you avoid at all costs. Yet, as Eric and Nathan discuss, the Holy Spirit is the very life of Christ within us-and the only way we can live out the reality of Christianity. In this round table discussion, Eric and Nathan talk about their own past with the topic of the Holy Spirit and why it's important for us to understand the life and role of the Holy Spirit biblically.

As Christians, our lives must be marked by the truth. Because God does not lie and because we are members of one body, we must aggressively throw any lie, hypocrisy, or duplicity from our lives. In this study from Ephesians 4:25, Nathan talks about truth, lying, and how both are far more than merely the words we say but also include how we live our lives.
