    Being a Christian is a calling to the hard work of shaping the metal of our lives (our character) into a form that expresses God’s masterpiece within all of us.

    Over the next few weeks, we will be looking to 1 Corinthians to come to a better understanding of what it means to call oneself a Christian. As Christians, we are called to live a very distinctive way. Being a Christian is a calling to the hard work of shaping the metal of our lives (our ...read more

    1Co 2:1 And I, brethren, when I came to you, came not with excellency of speech or of wisdom, declaring unto you the testimony of God. 2 For I determined not to know any thing among you, save Jesus Christ, and him crucified. 3 And I was with you in weakness, and in fear, and in much trembling. ...read more

  • United In Faith, United In Christ

    We have to set aside our sinful nature if we want to be united in Christ. We have to go back to the beginning of our Christian mission and purpose before we can move forward.

    The more things change, the more they stay the same. Sound familiar? In 1 Corinthians 1:10-17, Paul addresses a problem that still exists today. That problem is the lack of unity in the Christian church. The Corinthian Christians were divided into factions based on who had baptized them instead of ...read more

     | 6,577 views

    When we think of the problems in the Corinthian Church they are numerous but Paul chose to address disunity first.

    United we stand What a mess! It should have been a model church; after all it had all the earmarks of becoming the greatest church in the denomination. Its founding pastor was the most prolific church planter in the denomination; the next man was by far the best preacher that could be offered and ...read more

    How often do we brighten up the lives of others with special acts? • Or maybe a better question is, how often do we look for these kind of opportunities?

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 9, 2015
     | 6,516 views

    Every church needs to take this message to heart because one of the most tragic characteristics of modern society is pride and self-sufficiency.

    I said last time that in Paul’s first letter to the Corinthians concerning what to do about their divided church, Paul gives 11 answers to their problem. The first answer, Paul said, was the cross. If the church would refocus on their purpose based upon the cross, the church would begin to ...read more

  • Answer Three: Sound Preaching Series

    Contributed by Jerry Cosper on Apr 9, 2015
     | 6,410 views

    The Corinthian church was deeply divided. Two of the issues dividing it were a dispute over what kind of preacher should fill their pulpit, and which former minister had contributed the most to their church. This same problem exists today.

Paul answers that letter and we have it recorded as the book of 1 Corinthians. Paul offers them 11 answers to their division problem. The first answer was the cross. If the ...read more

    So we must be resolved in 2015 not by our own power but by the secret power of God to give us the boldness of faith to stand firm against the unbelieving world in which we live.

    Be Resolved I like to start each New Year thinking about a quote that goes like this…”may all your troubles last as long as your New Year’s resolutions”. For many of us our New Year’s resolutions will be short lived and this quote suggests that if that is the case ...read more

    Paul was determined to know and preach nothing except Christ and Him crucified . Today, it seems we preach everything but Christ and the cross, causing many to live as enemies of the cross..
