In this episode, we begin to study 1 Corinthians 7. The context of that chapter is the Apostle Paul answering questions the church had sent him about marriage. People were wondering whether it was best for a Christian to remain single, while there were then (as there are now) various cultural and peer pressures on people to get married. So, what principles does God give believers to guide them in choosing whether to get married or remain single? Consider these things in another study of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.

In this episode, we focus on 1 Corinthians 6:12-13, a passage which says all things are lawful, but not all things are helpful. We know in Christ that Christians have great freedom, but what should be one of the guiding factors which lead us in deciding what things we put into our minds? Though something might not be sinful per se, are there some things which Christians allow themselves to "need" when the thing is not truly a need? Consider these things in another episode of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.

This episode is a special tribute to Ann Peckham, affectionately known as "Jajja Ann" to her friends and family. Jajja is the Luganda word for grandparent. Ann passed away early Saturday morning, March 29, 2025. Memorial services are being held this afternoon (April 4) at Eagles Wings Children's Village in Uganda, and tomorrow at Oak Bluff Bible Church in Oak Bluff Manitoba. Death reminds of the most important question in life - where will I go when I die? Jajja Ann left us a legacy of sacrifice and service that all Christians should be challenged to follow. Consider these things in a special broadcast of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.

In this episode, we consider the ramifications of God's statements that believer's have been purchased by God and we no longer belong to ourselves. Many times, when people think of their covenant with Christ, they think of being set free from obligations of the law. While this is true, what greater obligations do Christians now have if they are not their own but are Christ's? Consider these things in another study of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.

In this episode, we focus on God's exhortation for believers to "flee sexual immorality." What special position does a Christian have with God that makes sexual sin particularly devastating and corrupting, both for the believer's well-being and their ministry as a Christian? Find out in another study of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.

In this episode, we study the description in 1 Corinthians 6 of those God says "will not inherit the kingdom of God." Interestingly, the Apostle Paul highlights that some of the members of the church at Corinth used to fit in this category. What does that tell us about the gospel and how does it help answer those who are critical of church-discipline by suggesting that it gives no grace to sinners? Consider these things in another study of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.

In our second episode in 1 Corinthians 6, we continue to look at God's commands to the church to mediate and give judgment when disputes arise between believers in the congregation. Since we must at times be in the role of mediator and judge, how can be sure that we will fulfill this role faithfully and actually mete out true judgment to people? Consider this question in another study of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.

In this episode, we study 1 Corinthians 6:1-8, a passage which explains that the Corinthian church had another very detrimental issue to their Christian witness. They were getting into disputes with each other and suing one another in secular courts. What damage would this do to the church's reputation and what is the new perspective Christians need to have to stop being most concerned about their individual rights? Consider these questions in another episode of transforming our thinking through the power of God's Word.
