Christian liberty is a gift, but without love, it can destroy. Discover why the Apostle Paul says being “right” isn’t enough, and how guarding the conscience of others reflects the very heart of Christ.

------

In 1 Corinthians 8, Paul addresses a dispute over eating meat sacrificed to idols, showing that knowledge alone, even if correct, can lead to pride and insensitivity. While some believers understood idols were nothing, others’ consciences were still tied to their past idol worship. Exercising liberty without considering weaker believers could damage their faith and even lead them into sin. Paul insists love must govern liberty: if an action risks causing someone to stumble, refrain from it. True maturity is measured not by what we know, but by our willingness to lay down our rights for the sake of God and others.

Discover how Scripture flips the cultural script on being unmarried, revealing a calling far richer than the world imagines.

------

Paul’s teaching in 1 Corinthians 7 shows that singleness is a good and valuable gift, not a consolation prize. It offers unique opportunities for undivided devotion to God, requires wisdom when moving toward marriage, and provides new family and mission within the church. Whether single or married, believers are called to embrace their God-given season for His glory.

In this week’s message from The Prodigal Church series, Pastor Grant Caldwell dives into a rich and often overlooked truth in 1 Corinthians 7: your vocation is not a detour from your discipleship—it’s part of your calling.

Whether you’re a teacher, artist, stay-at-home parent, accountant, or student, this passage affirms the sacredness of your everyday work. Paul reminds the Corinthian believers—and us—that while our faith changes everything, it doesn’t always mean changing jobs. It means changing how we view and do those jobs, living out our calling in view of the One who bought us with a price.

This sermon explores:

• How work becomes an idol in our culture.
• Why your job, whatever it is, can be a sacred act of restoration.
• The biblical vision of vocation as calling.
• Practical encouragement for remaining faithfully where God has placed you.

“Your vocation is a sacred act of God’s restoration of this world to a place of human flourishing.”

What does it mean to glorify God with your body? In a world of distorted freedom and personal truth, this message from 1 Corinthians 6 offers a bold, beautiful vision of sex, identity, and the sacredness of our bodies.

-------

In 1 Corinthians 6:12–20, Paul confronts the Corinthian church's confusion about sexuality, freedom, and the human body. Surrounded by a culture steeped in immorality, these early believers needed a fresh understanding of what it meant to glorify God with their bodies. This sermon explores Paul’s warning against twisting Christian liberty, rationalizing sin, and misusing what God calls sacred. Our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit and purchased at a high price. Believers are called to flee sexual immorality, not just avoid it, and live into their redeemed identity. Because in Christ, our freedom isn’t for self-indulgence, but for a sacred purpose.
