Pastor Steve Miller

In this message, Pastor Steve continues our series in 1 Corinthians by addressing the issue of division in the church. Paul urges believers to stay united under Christ—not divided by personalities or preferences. When we shift our focus away from Jesus, disunity takes root. This sermon challenges us to examine where our allegiance lies and calls us back to the centrality of Christ in all things.

Big Idea: Remembering what Christ has done clarifies who I am because of Him.

This Sunday, we began a new series in 1 Corinthians 1:1–9, where Paul reminds the church that their identity is found not in their works, but in Christ alone. We were enriched in Him in every way—in all speech, in all knowledge, and sustained by His grace. As we look at what Christ has done, we gain clarity about who we are. Because of Christ, we are called, enriched, and sustained.

Big Idea: Those who Christ has found intentionally invite others to believe.

This Sunday, we explored John 1:43-49, where Jesus calls His disciples and invites them to follow Him. Philip found Nathanael and said, “Come and see.” Through this passage, we are reminded that following Christ is an invitation not just for ourselves but for others as well. Who will you invite to believe?
