The Corinthians | Chapter 4: Respect for God's leadership | 05.31.26

The Corinthians | Chapter 3: Who "builds" the church | 05.24.26

God made each of us a certain way on purpose. It’s like we’re each a unique piece to a puzzle. Knowing this, we must accept the fact that, fitting into our unique place amongst others, is ultimately the most rewarding thing we will ever experience. And until we all come to this conclusion, the church will never be as beautiful as she was designed to be. Scripture References:  1 Corinthians 3:1–3 (NLT) Romans 8:5–8 (NLT) Romans 14:19 (NLT) 1 Corinthians 3:10–17 (NLT)

The Corinthians | The backstory | 05.03.26
