WS Update: Strong in the Lord

May 5, 2025


In his short and wonderfully helpful book, Safe and Sound, David Powlison wrote,

Scripture treats spiritual warfare as a normal, everyday part of the Christian life, and so we should as well. It’s not about spooky special effects. It’s about how we think, feel, live, desire…

Spiritual battles are real, and God’s people are not without help. The apostle Paul, in Ephesians 6, describes the resources that God has given to his people to equip them to stand strong amid the spiritual battles they face. On May 8, I’ll be leading a seminar to help us understand and experience how the message of Ephesians 6 applies to followers of Jesus today. More info below, and I hope to see you there.

In Christ,

Pastor Bijan
