1 Corinthians 6:12-20 / As Christians we have been saved from our sin: past, present, future. The church in Corinth was struggling to go back to their old sins and Paul tells them - “feel free”. But he begins to address the issue of their identity, perspective and motives. What motivates you to follow Christ over the temptation to sin?

1 Corinthians 6:1-11 / The church in Corinth has some unresolved conflict among their members and rather than dealing with it, chose to go before Roman law to seek mediation. Paul has a problem with this and we should too. God has given us everything we need to seek and find resolution in moments of disagreement or frustration with those in the family of God.

1 Corinthians 5:1-13 / In the family of God there are sometimes situations that require difficult and decisive decision-making. The church in Corinth had one of these situations; a member was involved in egregious sin that was harmful to them, harmful to the testimony of the church and harmful to the integrity of the assembly. What must be done when someone refuses to do what is right?

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?

1 Corinthians 4:6-13 / The church in Corinth was prejudicial and presumptive as it concerned the leaders in the church. In chapter 4, Paul is teaching them what true leadership looks like. In this sermon we learn about servanthood and the role of humility in leadership.

1 Corinthians 4:1-5 / After Paul describes how we as individuals and as a collective should live the mission of God, Paul turns his attention to the concept of leadership. What are leaders responsible for? What should they do when people hold them to unfair expectations?

1 Corinthians 3:16-23 / In chapter 3 Paul addresses a series of truths that effect the way we the purpose and practice of our faith. In this sermon we look at all the dynamics of our personal faith and ministry to consider: does what I with my life actually strengthen and build Christ’s church?

1 Corinthians 3:10-15 / In chapter 3 Paul addresses a series of truths that effect the way we the purpose and practice of our faith. In this sermon we look at the dynamics behind our spiritual legacy and answer the question: what will will my life amount to when I am gone?

1 Corinthians 3:5-9 / In chapter 3 Paul addresses a series of truths that effect the way we the purpose and practice of our faith. In this sermon we look at the dynamics behind our spiritual investments and answer the question: where do I fit in the work of the ministry?

1 Corinthians 3:1-4 / As we enter chapter 3, Paul addresses the biblical dynamics behind our spiritual growth. What we will discover is that our own lack of faithfulness is all that stands to hinder our spiritual development.

1 Corinthians 2:1-5 / We have learned that the gospel is the “power of God” unto those who believe. We have learned that the gospel is foolishness to the world but to us the true wisdom of God. But how to wear that power and how to wear that wisdom is often lost on us. Today Paul gives us a framework for what it means to hide ourselves in the gospel.
