What God is doing at Ten Mile

This message invites us into a moment of honest reflection about the state of our spiritual community and personal faith journey. Drawing from Ephesians chapter 1, we're reminded that the church isn't just another organization—it's the body of Christ, with Jesus as the head and each of us as vital members. The statistics shared aren't about boasting in numbers but about celebrating what God is doing: 56 souls saved, 17 baptisms, growing Sunday school attendance, and faithful giving. Yet the deeper question emerges: Are we truly living as people of the light, operating with transparency and purpose? The message challenges us to examine whether we're merely attending church to check a box or genuinely pursuing transformation. We're called to move beyond complaints about carpet colors and temperature settings to focus on what eternally matters—loving others, sharing the gospel, and being obedient to God's commands. The powerful prayer from Ephesians 1:15-23 becomes our roadmap: that our eyes of understanding would be enlightened, that we'd know the hope of His calling, and that we'd recognize the exceeding greatness of His power working in us. This isn't about perfection but about progress, about being willing to step out in faith even when we can't see the whole path ahead.
