1 Corinthians 16:13-24 / As we concluded the first letter to the church in

Corinth, we are charged to take all that we have learned and live in light

of truth. Paul asks the church to function in maturity, to face their

fears, to welcome the burden of ministry and celebrate those who have loved

them and served them. He asks them, after all have you learned, “are you

ready to make the investment?”
