At the end of the book of Ephesians, Paul tells the Christians to "be strong in the Lord." The Christian life is not lived in sunshine, cool breezes, and warm fuzzies. It is lived in gale force winds, shaking ground, and pounding waves. If we do not have a strong faith in who Christ is and what He has done for us then we will be knocked off our feet when struggles come. And they will come...guaranteed. So we must stand strong, but not in our own strength or our own ideas. In Ephesians 6:10-20 Paul describes "the armor of God." These are the attributes and works of God for us through Jesus Christ that equip us to stand strong no matter what difficulties we may face

Listening to sermons online can be a great way to keep up with a sermon series if you are unable to attend church but should never be a substitute for regular attendance of a gospel-centered and bible teaching church.
