Here you'll find the audio version of the messages from the weekend services at Woodlands, taught by Pastor Jon Ewton and other teaching pastors. Visit www.woodlandschurch.org to learn more.
In this message from Ephesians 5:1-18, Pastor Jon Ewton tackles four topics Paul addresses head-on: sexual immorality, hidden sin, walking wisely, and drunkenness. Using real statistics on pornography and alcohol abuse in our culture, he exposes the distortions we've come to accept as normal—and points to the hope found in the gospel. Through a personal story about getting stuck off-roading as a teen, Jon illustrates that no matter how stuck we feel in sin or addiction, Jesus invites us to come to Him and find rest.

9 - Put on Something New
In this message from Ephesians 4:17–5:2, Pastor Jon Ewton explores what it means to take off the "old self" and put on the "new self" in Christ. Using everyday illustrations, he walks through five practical shifts: from a calloused heart to a soft heart, falsehood to truthfulness, sinful anger to peacemaking, greed to generosity, and corrupting talk to helpful words. Rather than presenting these as legalistic rules, Pastor Jon frames them as the natural response of loving Jesus and wanting to imitate Him, as beloved children walking in love, just as Christ loved us and gave Himself for us.

8 - Build Up
In this message from Ephesians 4:7-16, Pastor Jon Ewton unpacks how God has gifted every believer differently—not to create division, but to build up the local church in unity and maturity. He walks through the five roles Paul names (apostles, prophets, evangelists, shepherds, and teachers) and shows how they work together to equip the saints for ministry. Using the illustration of a baseball team and a personal story about winterizing an irrigation system, Pastor Jon challenges listeners to stop being spectators and start actively serving, growing, and speaking truth in love within their church community. A message from Woodlands Church.
