Leadership that Stirs / 1 Cor 4:14-21

1 Corinthians 4:14-21 / Paul had some serious issues he needed to address in Corinth, but how could he challenge the church to follow Christ if they were unwilling to follow him? In this part of our study on biblical leadership, we learn that leadership that loves is a leadership that has permission to correct and challenge. Are we willing to love and correct? Are we willing to receive that same kind of leadership in our own lives?

Wisdom or Foolishness? / 1 Cor 1:18-25

1 Corinthians 1:18-25 / In Paul’s letter he recently addressed the disunity found among the believers in the church in Corinth. Today we find him uncovering the source of such disunity - human and worldly wisdom that makes the cross of Christ foolish. But what man call’s foolish, God calls wise and so we learn today how to live in the power of God’s wisdom.
