Pastor Rick Beaudry expounds on 1 Corinthians 9:15,27, calling us to be soul winners by following Paul’s example of running the race with the right motive, method, and mastery. He urges sacrificial, disciplined evangelism—preaching freely, adapting to reach others without compromising truth, and prioritizing winning souls especially within our own homes. Beaudry highlights the urgency of the times through prophetic signs, the spiritual battle against lies, and the eternal rewards awaiting those who persevere. The message closes with a direct invitation to repent, trust Christ, and join the labor of bringing others to salvation.

Pastor Rick Beaudry expounds on 1 Corinthians 9:1-14, urging churches not to "muzzle the ox" and laying out six scriptural arguments that ministers deserve financial support. He contrasts sacrificial, accountable ministry with the excesses of the prosperity gospel, warns against manipulating giving, and affirms Old Testament and New Testament provisions that those who preach should live from the gospel. Drawing on personal testimony about tent making, church planting, loans and lean seasons, he encourages cheerful, sacrificial giving as worship and calls us to contentment, faithful stewardship and walking by faith.

Pastor Rick Beaudry unpacks 1 Corinthians 8:1,13, contrasting knowledge that puffs up with love that builds up and stressing that Christian liberty must be guided by love. He explains Paul’s point that idols are nothing and food is neutral, yet conscience matters, so we must not use our freedoms in ways that defile or embolden those who are weak. Applying the passage to modern issues like alcohol, drugs, dietary trends, church practice and child rearing, he urges us to evaluate situations, eliminate stumbling blocks and sometimes deny our liberty for the good of others. The goal is to edify one another, protect the vulnerable and show the world Christlike love.

Pastor Rick Beaudry preaches on 1 Corinthians 7:25-40, underscoring Paul’s warning that time is short and urging us to evaluate our priorities. He outlines four advantages of singleness, namely focus, faithfulness, foresight and freedom, and explains how singleness can free one to serve the Lord without distraction while marriage brings additional worldly cares and responsibilities. Beaudry ties Paul’s counsel to urgent end time themes from scripture, warning of persecution, apostasy, famine and social collapse, and challenges us to live sacrificially for eternal purposes rather than temporal comfort. Practical applications include avoiding crippling debt, dedicating time and treasure to missions and ministry, and encouraging widows and singles to consider serving the Lord fully as they await Christ’s return.

Pastor Rick Beaudry preaches from 1 Corinthians 7:17,24 on surrender, urging us to consider our calling, the caller, and the cost as the path to contentment. He calls believers to abide where God has placed them, remain faithful in marriage or servitude, resist man-pleasing and false teachers, and rely on the Holy Spirit rather than worldly comfort or prosperity. Drawing on biblical examples like Moses, Joseph, Abraham, Jonah, Gideon, Paul, and Jeremiah, he shows how suffering and obedience refine faith and produce lasting fruit. Beaudry reminds us we are bought with a great price, and that true freedom and purpose come from yielding our will to God.

Pastor Rick Beaudry unpacks 1 Corinthians 7:8,16, addressing singleness, widows, married believers, and mixed marriages with unbelievers. He reiterates Paul's counsel that celibacy can be a gift but marriage is better than burning, urges reconciliation while limiting divorce to unrepentant sexual immorality, death, or abandonment, and warns against treating marriage as a prison. Beaudry encourages spouses married to unbelievers to stay and sanctify their households by faithful living, calls men to lead with godly devotion, and emphasizes the church and Scripture as safeguards for families. He weaves Scripture and personal testimony and invites us to surrender to Christ as the true and faithful spouse.

Pastor Rick Beaudry unpacks 1 Corinthians 7:1,7, teaching that celibacy is good and a God-given gift for some but not the rule for everyone, with Jesus and Paul as examples. He contrasts celibacy and marriage, urges purity, and warns against fornication, pornography, and the sexual relativism infiltrating the church while affirming marriage as God’s design for intimacy, procreation, partnership and spiritual witness. Explaining verse 3, he stresses mutual sexual responsibility between spouses with only a temporary exception for fasting and prayer, and cautions that withholding intimacy is a dangerous gamble that can invite temptation. Drawing on biblical narratives from Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and Solomon and on pastoral counsel, he urges us to rely on the Holy Spirit for sanctification, faithful service to Christ and wise, obedient living whether single or married.

Pastor Rick Beaudry unpacks 1 Corinthians 6:1–11, rebuking believers for taking fellow Christians to secular courts and urging us to pursue reconciliation within the church using Matthew 18 and Luke 17 as a guide. He reminds us of our future role judging the world and angels, so we should change our arbitrator, attitude, and activity by seeking godly arbitration, forgiving one another, and avoiding public lawsuits. Beaudry warns that habitual unrighteousness—sexual immorality, theft, covetousness, drunkenness and similar sins—indicates a lack of true conversion, then celebrates the gospel’s power to wash, sanctify, and justify because "such were some of you." Practical counsel includes walking away from petty claims, seeking repentance and restoration, and living by Scripture rather than worldly compromise.

Pastor Rick Beaudry reads 1 Corinthians 5:1,13 and confronts the Corinthian church’s tolerance of flagrant sexual sin, urging churches to practice loving discipline. He unpacks Paul’s rebuke, remedy and reason for excommunication as a restorative measure meant to save the offender’s spirit and protect the congregation from the leaven of corruption. Tying the passage to modern concerns about cultural relativism, compromised churches, broken marriages, youth groups and pornography, he calls us to confess sin, purge the old leaven and restore repentant members. Beaudry closes with pastoral appeals to rely on Christ, pursue holiness, forgive generously and reach the lost with the gospel.

Pastor Rick Beaudry preaches on 1 Corinthians 4:14,21, urging us to embrace intimate discipleship as Paul modeled it for the Corinthian church. He outlines four requirements for disciples: listen to warning, look to example, learn instruction, and live in submission, illustrating fatherly discipline, spiritual example, and the primacy of the gospel's power over therapeutic approaches. He confronts cultural trends toward shallow teaching, victim identity, and nervous system explanations, emphasizing repentance, sanctification, and God's grace to transform pain into growth. The sermon closes with a call to faith and forgiveness and an invitation for anyone who has not trusted Christ to receive salvation.
