In this sermon, Fr. Stephen Osburn reflects on St. Paul’s pastoral wisdom to a restless city like Corinth and shows why the apostle’s personal testimony is not self focus but a doorway to Christ. Paul names the real battles of the heart and then turns the Church toward the Lord, teaching that the problem with pride is not only that it is bad, but that it replaces God with the self. The cure begins when every part of life is reoriented to the glory of God.
Fr. Stephen applies this to daily life in Savannah. Our city is busy and full of distractions, but grace can convert schedules into prayer and struggles into offerings. Choose one virtue to practice, attach your day to prayer, and return to confession often. The goal is a simple defense before God: I was weak and I fell, yet I offered my life to You and learned to love in Your name.
If your heart is noisy, take courage. St. Paul’s word to Corinth is God’s word to us. Let every moment be offered to Christ, and pride will bow to glory.
