John brings us another message through 1 Corinthians 7:25-40, where Paul teaches that whether single or married, we are called to live with undivided devotion to God, making choices that prioritize His eternal kingdom over temporary distractions

In our message today from 1 Corinthians 7, John teaches us that no matter our marital status or social situation, we are called to faithfulness, contentment, and identity in Christ. Our lives are not defined by circumstances, but by the One who called us.

In this message, John speaks to us about our sexual integrity. While the world may view sexual relationships outside the bounds of marriage, God has other plans for it. We are informed by Paul that our bodies are not our own, they were bought with a price, therefore, we are to glorify God in everything with do with them.

John is bringing us a message from 1 Corinthians 6 where we discover the church has developed a problem of taking each other to court, making a public spectacle of Christ before a non-believing world. Paul has a lot to say about how we should resolve conflicts within the church through wisdom, humility, and holiness.

In this message we'll explore God's urgent call in 1 Corinthians 5 to purge the leaven of sin through loving discipline. This is about legalism or shame but about protecting the church's holiness and restoring the sinner to Christ. We'll see three truths: the danger of tolerating sin, the necessity of biblical discipline, and the hope of holiness in Christ.

A special Father's Day sermon focusing on the challenge to be men of integrity as we lead our families toward godliness. John takes a look at the character of God and how that inspires men to follow His example to live above reproach.

In this sermon, John takes a look at 1 Corinthians 4 where we find Paul's challenge to re-evaluate our understanding of true Christian leadership and what discipleship is all about. It is defined by humble service, faithful stewardship, and fatherly mentoring of those we lead to Christ.

In our sermon, John brings to us a message from 1 Corinthians 3 where Paul confronts the church in Corinth about how they've been building their life of faith. He challenges them and us to build on the foundation of Jesus Christ.

When the world of chaos is calling your name, you need to listen to another voice, the voice of God, spoken through His Spirit. It has been a hidden call to God's wisdom that only through faith in Jesus Christ is it made readily available. In 1 Corinthians 2, John brings us a message that unveils God's wisdom in a world of noise.

As we round out the 1st chapter of the first letter to the Corinthians, John helps us understand that the foolishness of the gospel message centered on the cross of Jesus Christ, is greater than anything the world and its wisdom can understand. God uses the foolish to shame the wise, He uses the weak to shame the strong, and He uses us to make a difference.
