Paul quotes a song of David in today's verse. We talk about how David's love of God caused him to sing in praise (and sometimes in embarrassing ways), and how David accepted God's forgiveness.

We are not called to be served but to serve.

Paul concludes a big section on peace within the church by a simple instruction: welcome (or accept) each other, as Jesus welcomed (or accepted) you.

Paul finishes his prayer for the church that he started in verse five with a hope that we may glorify God with one voice. We talk about the peace of the early church and how we can get that peace back.

Paul stops teaching in this verse and instead breaks out into a prayer for harmony. We talk about both harmony and prayer.

Paul tells us the scripture exist so that we might have hope. We explore what hope truly means.

Paul loops in the life of Jesus to his illustration of the strong shouldering the burdens of the weak, citing both Jesus's temptation by the Devil and Psalm 69:9 to prove his point.

Paul tells us to act in our neighbor's best interest when it comes to their faith, and to build up their faith. We explore that through the parable of the good samaritan.

Paul starts chapter 15 by instructing the strong to bear the weaknesses of the weak. We talk about how Jesus bore the cross on the way to being crucified, and how we follow Jesus by bearing others' weaknesses too, and letting stronger followers bear our burdens when we need help as well.

Paul finishes chapter 14 by pointing out that those stumbling blocks--things that make others doubt their faith--are big problems. We talk about doubt and how we can encourage others' faith rather than making them doubt.
