Many people think that the more emotional and unpredictable a worship service becomes the better it is. But the Bible calls us in 1 Corinthians 14 to do everything decently and in order. Order is not restrictive but protective.
And what about that part of 1 Corinthians 14 that calls for women to keep silent in the church? Let's talk about that as well!
What moves worship from good to great? It isn't the music. It isn't a better message. In 1 Corinthians 13 the Bible reveals a critical element that changes everything.
Many believe that the more emotional people become and the more unpredictable the service becomes the more spiritual a worship service is. But Paul uses two curious words to describe truly great, Spirit-filled worship in 1 Corinthians 14. The words are "decently" and "in order."
Decently means fittingly. So what fits in Spirit-filled worship? This message walks through 1 Corinthians 14:1-25.
Modern worship takes place in an auditorium that is setup for performance. As a result, people have become passive rather than being a participant in worship. How do we make the shift from passive to participant? The answers are in 1 Corinthians 12.
What makes a worship service truly great? As we continue to answer this question from 1 Corinthians 12-14, in this message we find out that if you want to move beyond the performance and into the presence of God, then you must look beyond the platform and notice the variety of spiritual gifts in the church.
What makes a worship service truly great? In 1 Corinthians 12-14 Paul offers some corrective measures for the Corinthians as they gather for worship. And you may be surprised that there is no mention of many of the things you might commonly think make worship great. In this message, we look at the first of several elements that make a worship service truly great.
It seems like in the American church there is always a controversy and with the Bible there is always another interpretation. If no one can agree, what am I supposed to believe? Is any of it even real if none of it is right?
1 Corinthians 11:2-16 deals with a contentious issue in the Corinthian church by calling them to focus on some truths that are crystal clear. This message will help you discern and learn to minor on what is cont...
On the first Sunday of each month we gather together for prayer and communion. What is communion? What do the elements represent? Communion helps us to identify with and remember the sacrifice Jesus made for us, His church.
If every Christian were just like me, what kind of Christian would other Christians be? If others read the Bible as much or little as me? If others prayed for the same things as me? What would be the state of Christianity based on the influence of my faith?
In 1 Corinthians 11:1 Paul said to "imitate me, as I am of Christ." Could the same be said of your faith?
Biblically based, Christ-centered faith has influence. It has i...
You are burdened for your family and friends to know Christ. And you've invited them to church before but it wasn't effective. Why not?
Paul was effective in reaching the lost for Christ. 1 Corinthians 9 reveals his mentality and shows you how to win your friends and family to Christ.
When it comes to sex many believe that the Bible's message is that sex is bad. If that's the case, Christian singles and couples find it difficult to navigate a sexually charged culture and to deal with sexual desire.
But that's not the message. In 1 Corinthians 7, Paul clarifies the Biblical message about sex and dealing with strong desire for couples, singles, the engaged, and for those who are single again.
In this message we answer two questions from 1 Corinthians 5 and 6.
- If I am to love my neighbor, shouldn't I be more tolerant of their sexual choices?
- Are churches that are more sexually tolerant more culturally relevant?
The cultural mantra is that it's just sex and because it's my body then it should be my choice. But the Bible has a higher view of your body and teaches that there are greater consequences to our choices. In this message Brian will teach from 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 and show you how God wants to redeem your body and give you joyful, meaningful sex within marriage.
While Christian podcasts and Bible apps are useful tools, you should put a priority on personal time in the Word of God, prayer, and digesting the sermon at your home church. Your pastor may not have a cool podcast, but his preaching is important.
This is a continuation of the message, Why You Should Pay More Attention to Your Pastor's Sermon, Even If He Doesn't Have a Cool Podcast from 1 Corinthians 4.
Is the Sunday sermon important to you? It should be, but why? 1 Corinthians 4 teaches us why preaching is important how to listen to a sermon.
With so much Christian content, so many preachers and churches, how can we make sure we clearly hear the voice of God? Who's right? What's wrong? This message from 1 Corinthians 3 helps draw some conclusions from last week's message from 1 Corinthians 1 and 2.
Do you listen to preachers and podcasts? Who do you listen to and why? In this message we look at 1 Corinthians 1:18-2:16 to help you see through personalities and preferences and really get to what the Spirit is saying and how God is working in gospel preaching.
The church is the powerful and beautifully gifted people of God. Unfortunately ugly attitudes and actions can cover the powerful and beautiful and make the church unrecognizable. How does this happen? What are the corrective steps? HOW DO YOU RUIN A CHURCh? This message will cover 1 Corinthians 1:4-17.
Drama. Division. Scandal. Temptation. 1 Corinthians has it all . . .and so does the American church. What's right? What's wrong? In this message Brian gives an overview of 1 Corinthians so that you can read it with understanding. This message is the first in a sermon series on 1 Corinthians.
Many parents are intimidated by the questions their children ask about spiritual things. And while you may not have all of the answers, you can lead you children to the Lord. In this message we look at practical approaches and principles about sharing the gospel with your children.
