If there was a sub-title to this message it would be, “the sad disappearance of chasing butterflies and blowing bubbles in the Church.” Let’s face it—the rigors, the challenges, and the seriousness of this world seems to demand that we all grow up and pitch in to help steer this world from the edge of eternal destruction. And it would be a reasonab…

The Christian life is all about new beginnings, fresh starts, and resurrected Life. But the resurrected Life that we enjoy as believers was discovered in and through the death of Christ. And that’s a key pattern in God’s Kingdom: Life always rises out of death, or it could be said, death always precedes Life. From Noah to Abraham to Moses to Jesus …

God’s leadership over our lives takes us through peaks and valleys. It takes us through rivers, deserts, and over rickety wooden bridges. But whatever the terrain and the altitude, He simply asks that we trust Him implicitly. Conceptually, this idea of “trusting God” doesn’t seem like it should be a difficult task. But, come to find out, spiritual …

Much like the Christian life, the Golden Plover is created to do something that, apart from God, could never be accomplished. God designed this humble little bird to fly 2,500 miles non-stop from Alaska to Hawaii every year. But, biologically, mathematically, and aeronautically this feat is not just improbable—it’s impossible. As believers, like th…

In the CrossFit world of athletic fitness, a WOD is a “Workout of the Day.” A "Hero WOD" is an amped up version of a WOD. It’s a commemorative workout that honors a fallen hero. Performing a “Hero WOD” is a wonderful way to the describe the daily Christian life. It’s intense, it’s difficult, it’s sweat-inducing, and it is all done to honor the Ulti…

This is a message about seeing the impossible happen—where two completely opposite things like bitter and sweet stop their bickering and backbiting and finally join forces to form something neither on their own ever could. That’s the make-up of a Latte. And, supposedly—for those that like lattes—this unique blend of contrasting flavors is kind of a…

The Kingdom of Heaven appears upside down to us here on Earth. For instance, to be great, you must become small. To go high, you must first go low. To get strong, you must embrace weakness. This is not how we naturally think and reason, which is why many of us struggle with adapting to the Kingdom Life of small, low, and weak equating to great, hig…

Procrastination is not a friend of functional Christianity. Rather, it’s a sworn enemy. Everything that makes Christianity work is based on “doing” and “action”. God goes out of his way to explain to us in the Scriptures that we can’t be tares, we must be wheat. We can’t be virgins without oil, we must be virgins with oil. And we mustn’t be goats t…

This is a message at the very heart of our Ellerslie Training. The Five Fingers is an illustration that is often used in our teaching to explain the most central, salient, and foundational Truths that make up the Christian life. These are the five points that we as believers unite on and separate over. This is what Christianity is all about. Hint: …

There are things in life that are naturally attractive to us as humans (ie. flowers, sunsets, and poetry). Tribulation is definitely not on that list. In fact, we will go to great lengths to avoid it. But, as believers in Christ, it is essential that we recalibrate our thinking regarding this very important thing known as tribulation. Because accor…

The average human when given a choice between becoming a small or a great person, without hesitation, would select great. Why not? Isn’t it the goal of life on this earth to become someone special? But, when you contrast that native instinct for the “great” life against the Christ model—there is a stark difference seen. Christ, when He came to this…

Potato farming demands faith. The potato farmer needs to trust that the potato is actually growing though he can’t see it growing underneath all the dirt. Most of us steer clear of this sort of faith. We prefer things we can see, smell, hear, and touch. But, God is in the business of potato farming faith. And it is this sort of faith that Eric is c…

The Christian life is impossible to live. But that doesn’t mean we aren't intended by God to live it. The secret is in gaining the supernatural help to pull it off. Baked into the design of the strong Christian life is something that Eric refers to as “leveling up.” It’s when God calls the Christian to a higher degree of difficulty in their walk an…

Superman is unstoppable. There isn’t a bad guy out there that can possibly defeat him. Unless, of course, the bad guy happens to know Superman’s lone weakness—Kryptonite.The church of Jesus Christ was designed to be unstoppable, too. But, if that’s true, then why do we presently appear to be so pathetic, so frail, and so vulnerable? Could it be bec…

The number twenty-nine seems to be all over the Ellerslie ministry. But why? In this tribute sermon, Eric explores the powerful way this number has impacted his life and the lives of all those who have gone through the training at Ellerslie. This is a fun message that gives a unique behind-the-scenes take at some very formative moments of the minis…

A gambōl is a playful skipping and frolicking about. It’s not something many of us still do after we crest the age of seven. But it is an art that as we enter the Kingdom of our dear Savior, we are intended by God to pick back up and master. In fact, the Spirit of God aims to train us in bringing out our most energetic gambōl when life turns bleak …

In Joshua chapter 17, the Mountain Country is not the desirable land. It’s rocky, forested. filled with Canaanite giants, and, these Canaanites giants have iron chariots, to boot! So, it isn’t any surprise when Ephraim and Manasseh receive their tract of land in the Mountain Country that it translated to them as a bit of a downer. We all have the s…

The Christian life is won or lost in mind. The Devil knows this, too. So the Devil goes after the aperture of the Christian mind in order to direct its focus anywhere but on Christ and His Cross. If we as Christians know this, then we fight back and learn to counteract this demonic ploy with God’s weaponry. This particular sermon lays out one of th…

Being a WW1 fighter pilot was gutsy. Kind of like being a radical Chrisitan today. When a pilot went up in one of those rickety biplanes, there was a high chance he wasn’t coming back. As Christians, when we sign up for serious Christian living, it’s kind of like climbing into a rickety WW1 biplane and taking off. It’s a dangerous and difficult mis…

From the outside looking in, the long jump event in track and field doesn’t seem very complicated. You run and then, well, jump. What’s so difficult about that? But, experts that know a little more than the average human say that the long jump is actually one of the most technically complex events in all of sports. And that’s kind of like living ou…

Consistency in any field or arena of life is important. But, consistency in the realm of Christian living moves beyond the term “important” into the zone of “eternally significant.” An inconsistent Christian can be the undoing of another human soul, the justification of a wary skeptic to stay away from the Truth, and even the excuse for another bel…

Many Christians today are showing a greater faith in the power of Sin to continue to control their lives than they are in the power of God to deliver their lives from the power of Sin. We all go one of two ways. We are either overpowered by Sin, or we learn the secret of overpowering Sin. Yes. It’s true. Sin boasts a greater power than that of huma…

Our measurements for greatness often don’t match with God’s measurements. We see Eliab the strapping son of Jesse and we cry out, “Anoint him! Make him king!” But, God sees the eighth son of Jesse, who seemingly wasn’t important enough to even invite to the party, and He says, “There is a man after my own heart!” The Bible chronicles a long line of…

God designed us as humans to remember. But, that doesn’t mean we do. He even commands us to remember. But, we still struggle to live according to our design. Ironically, we even want to remember, but without a purposeful and intentional strategy we simply fail in this mission. Remembrance is a tactical way to sponsor the growth and continuance of T…

The Devil has convinced many in the Church today that he is an equal with God—that if he were to duke it out with the Almighty that he would have a real shot at winning the bout. That’s laughable, especially since the Devil is already defeated. And the fight wasn’t even close. But, the Devil still roars loudly from his cage and he doesn’t want anyo…
