Love God, love people, and change the world. We believe the life and lessons of Jesus aren’t just good advice, but are Good News for us here and now. As a church, we are all about following Jesus and know there’s no end to that journey—we’re more about becoming than arriving. We are committed to becoming a multi-generational, multi-ethnic, multiplying movement of Christ followers, equipping and empowering our kids and students to not only be the church of tomorrow, but the church of today.

In this episode, we continue our series on the first four ecumenical councils of the early church, diving into the Council of Ephesus (431 AD). Matthew Pursely joins us again to explore the theological debates surrounding Nestorius, the nature of Christ, and the implications of the hypostatic union—Jesus being fully God and fully man.
We discuss how this council addressed Nestorianism, affirmed Mary as the "Theotokos" (God-bearer), and shaped Christian understanding of communion and humanity’s connection to Christ.
Recommended Resources
For those wanting to dive deeper into the councils and related theology:
- Edward Siecienski – The Filioque: History of a Doctrinal Controversy
- Adonis Vidu – Exploring the Doctrine of Divine Inseparability
- John Behr – The Nicene Faith (2 volumes) and John the Theologian and the Mystery of Christ
- Kallistos Anatolios – Retrieving Nicaea
- John Henry Newman – Arians of the Fourth Century
- William Bright – Notes on the Canons of the First Four General Councils
- Todd Miles – Superheroes Can’t Save You: Epic Examples of Historic Heresies (compares heresies to superhero archetypes—highly recommended entry-level read).
