Everyday Truth with Kurt Skelly

Tuesday, August 13 | Husbands, listen up! (Ephesians 5:25-28)

Ephesians 5:25-28

The Bible instructs husbands to love their wives AS Christ loved the church. If that be true (and it is), then we husbands must answer the larger question: How did Christ love the church? Fortunately, this passage of Scripture supplies at least 4 ways husbands can and should love their wives as Jesus loves His bride!

Monday, August 12 | Wives, listen up! (Ephesians 5:22-24)

Ephesians 5:22-24

Much controversy surrounds the word submission in modern culture. Somehow, the word has become negative and connotes inferiority or weakness. Nothing could be farther from the truth! Biblical submission is evidence of Spirit-power and was modeled by the Lord Jesus Himself. Moreover, it is an essential component to the success of any group.

Friday, August 9 | How can I know that I am filled with God’s Spirit? (Ephesians 5:19-21)

Ephesians 5:19-21

Thursday, August 8 | Every single opportunity matters! (Ephesians 5:15-18)

Ephesians 5:15-18

Wednesday, August 7 | Don’t be neutral about sin! (Ephesians 5:9-14)

Ephesians 5:9-14

Tuesday, August 6 | Don't Settle for Cheap Love (Ephesians 5:4-8)

Ephesians 5:4-8

Monday, August 5 | Walk Like Jesus (Ephesians 5:1-3)

Ephesians 5:1-3

Friday, August 2 | Why should I forgive him? (Ephesians 4:29-32)

Ephesians 4:29-32

Sin’s roots go deep. “Putting off” sin in one’s life is much more than behavior modification; it requires heart-level repentance! Central to the health of any relationship is the need for forgiveness. But how do we forgive people who have wronged us too egregiously? This passage gives us the most powerful why of all.

Thursday, August 1 | What NOT to do, what TO do, and why! (Ephesians 4:25-28)

Ephesians 4:25-28

This passage is one of the Bible's most practical passages. Using the simple format of (1) what not to do, (2) what to do, and (3) why to do it, Paul emphasizes five toxic behaviors among Christians that damage others and ultimately grieve the Holy Spirit. 

Wednesday, July 31 | It's time to change clothes! (Ephesians 4:20-24)

Ephesians 4:20-24

This passage provides such a simple and applicable way to look at Christian behavior. It is like taking off old clothes and putting on new ones. But how does a believer know what is new and old? Because he has the Holy Spirit to teach him, the Word of God guides his thinking. Renewed thinking produced a radically new behavior—behavior that reflects the new man in Christ that each true believer is.
