Don't Grieve. Give Grace.

Dec 7, 2025    Grant Braaten

In this message, Pastor Grant explores Ephesans 4 which is an “in your business” text—one that doesn’t just comfort us, but confronts us.

Paul reminds us that in Christ we’ve been given a new heart and a new self, and now we’re called to actually ​ walk in it.

We are to lay aside lies, bitterness, and to deal with our anger before the sun goes down, to stop taking and start giving, and to refuse to live with a hardened, indifferent heart.

This sermon presses into the why behind all of it: not “because it’s bad,” but because every choice either builds or breaks relationship—with others and with the Holy Spirit who lives in us.

Our words are meant to give grace, our work is meant to bless those in need, and our hearts are meant to stay tender and responsive to God, not calloused by the world.

If you’ve ever felt Scripture exposing your heart, or you sense you’ve been walking more like your old self than your new one, this message will encourage you and guide you to rediscover what it really means to walk with God in everyday life.
