  • Loving The Weak (1 Corinthians 8)

    Is it ok for Christians to participate in the practices of other religions? Is it ok to visit the Hindu temple, or participate in Ching Ming? Is it ok to participate in the Catholic mass, or to eat food that has been offered to the family altar? 1 Corinthians 8, we see that it's not enough to have the right theological answers, we must ask in love towards our brothers and sisters in Christ, who may not yet have grasped the right answers themselves.

  • Single-Minded Devotion (1 Corinthians 7:25-40)

    It's very easy to idolise marriage, looking for meaning and purpose in life in finding a marriage partner and starting a family. But whatever our marital status, we should make it our goal to live in undivided devotion to the Lord. Because in the light of eternity, pleasing God is what matters most.

  • Sex, Marriage & Divorce (1 Corinthians 7:1-24)

  • Sex & Temptation (1 Corinthians 6:12-20)

    Over the last 100 years, our world has been through an extraordinary revolution in attitudes to sex. Our world is increasingly on a quest for sexual freedom. But in may ways this "freedom" has instead led to bondage. In 1 Corinthians 6:12-20, we're reminded of how much our bodies matter to God, and how God's design for sex is so much better than our modern alternatives. True sexual freedom is living out God's design, not the dangerous and destructive path of sexual immorality.

  • Dealing With Sin In The Church (1 Corinthians 5:1-6:11)

    It’s crucial that we take sin seriously. Unrepentant sin leads to God’s judgement and if it’s not dealt with it will spread like a cancer in the church. But God’s wonderful offer of full forgiveness is available to all who will turn from their sin and turn to the Lord Jesus. We can be washed, sanctified, justified, accepted by God, and restored to loving fellowship with one another.

  • Cross-Shaped Ministry (1 Corinthians 4:6-21)

    Why do churches differ so much? There is a great variety of churches – not just in terms of their size or language or demographics, but in their theology, forms of worship, mission and vision and in their experience. How are we to think about this spectrum of churches? Is it all just about personal taste? Adapting the form of worship that appeals to you. Not right nor wrong? Just a matter of preference? Or are the differences more significant? Do styles of worship represent competing theologies which are more or less faithful to the Scriptures?

  • How To Help A Proud Church (1 Corinthians 3:18-4:5)

    It is a sad reality that pride remains a common feature of many churches. It’s very easy for a church to take its eyes off Christ and the cross and start evaluating its value and successfulness based on other factors. Like how many people are attending, or how impressive the music is, or how magnificent the building is, or how good the preaching is? So how do you help a proud church?

  • Peace In Anxious Times (Philippians 4:1-9)

    Peace - it's something that we all long for, but right now it may seem far off. How can we experience peace instead of anxiety? Where can true peace be found?

  • Servants Of Christ (1 Corinthians 3:1-17)

    Godly leaders lead people into godliness. Ungodly leaders lead people into ungodliness. Ungodly leaders who deny the gospel in their teaching or life will harm and divide the church. Godly leaders who humbly and sacrificially proclaim the gospel can have a remarkable impact in building the church to maturity, as God gives the growth.

  • The Blessed Man (Psalm 1)

    Most people make it their life’s purpose to be happy. Our world is constantly offering us ways to fulfils that longing, to be truly happy. But what is the path to true happiness? Where can true blessing be found? Psalm 1 gives us a picture of the blessed life that is very different to world's.
