This passage in 1 Corinthians raises some challenging but important questions. With the help of a special guest, we take time to wrestle with these tough topics while bringing the focus back to God’s character.
- How should we define prophecy?
- How do we weigh / discern prophecy?
- Do verses 34 and 35 apply to single women?
God is a God of peace and order, and our worship ought to reflect who He is.
In this passage, Paul instructs the Corinthian church in orderly worship
Paul exhorts the Corinthian church to earnestly desire the gifts -- so what has this looked like for each of us?
This week, we discuss tongues and prophecy in the corporate gathering and welcome a special guest who shares both wisdom and pieces of her own story.
The gifts of prophecy and tongues are given by God for the good of the church.
Paul shows how they are to be practiced, always grounded in love, so that the whole body is encouraged and strengthened.
We often look at 1 Corinthians 13 without thinking of the surrounding context. At its core, this passage encourages the Corinthian church to exercise spiritual gifts in a way that is rooted in love.
Our conversation begins with one important question: How does love practically play out in unity and not only in uniformity?
Other questions:
- How do you not insist on your own way while holding tightly to conviction?
- How is this descri...
In this well-known passage, Paul tells the Corinthian church that if they want unity to last, it all comes down to one thing: love.
God appoints the gifts that the Church needs, and Paul reminds us of this truth in 1 Corinthians 12.
This week, we dig deeper into these "higher gifts" and explore how they ultimately point toward unity.
Some of the questions we consider include:
- What does unity really mean?
- How can we remain unified even when we land in different places regarding the gifts?
- Do individuals have gifts of healing and miracles?
The gifts listed in this passage are appointed to and needed by the Church today.
How are we supposed to use these gifts for the common good of the Church?
God has graciously brought a diversity of individuals to The Town Church. In this episode, we take time to reflect on the unique giftings we see in a small number of those people and the beauty of God’s design in bringing us together.
Some questions for discussion:
- A common belief today is that the Church does not have a place in our personal relationship with God. How does this passage speak to that?
- Why is uniformity not necessa...
The church is composed of a wide variety of people, and everyone has something different to bring to the table.
This passage answers an important question: What are God's designs for unity in the diversity of the local church?
When it comes to the gifts mentioned in this passage, many people fall along a wide spectrum in terms of their personal views.
- What is your personal experience with these gifts?
- How have your views continued to be shaped over the course of your Christian life?
How is the Holy Spirit at work in the life of the Church?
Paul answers this question in this passage, introducing three profound ways the Spirit builds up the Church.
Communion is a beautiful way we are able to experience the love of Christ and recognize the sacrifice made for us on the cross.
This week, we talk about changes we made as a church in how we do Communion and do a deeper exploration of this passage in 1 Corinthians 11.
- What is your process before you take Communion?
- What things may distract us from Jesus in our church gatherings today?
- What responsibility do parents have in guidi...
The church in Corinth had lost sight of the true meaning of the Lord’s Supper, treating it in ways that caused division.
In this passage, Paul offers a strong correction—reminding the church (and us) of what this meal truly represents.
This passage is filled with timeless instruction that reveals God's good design for marriage. Additionally, we try to bring a bit of clarity to some of Paul's more confusing points (...because of the angels?).
- How can we see the cultural significance of this passage as Christians in Fort Collins?
- What is our personal response to God's design for marriage?
- How can we discern between timeless instruction and cultur...
This passage is filled with instruction that applies to us today, even outside of the cultural context Paul was writing to. These truths about God's true design for marriage all point us to the worship of Jesus.
Through Christ, we've received the freedom to love others. But what can this look like in our lives today?
This week, we unpack practical applications, discuss how the passage hit each of us, and consider what it really means to glorify God in life.
Paul tackles the topic of Christian freedom.
What's our Christian freedom and how do we then live freely?
Brock joins us for this week's AfterWord as we discuss some hard questions surrounding the text.
- How did this passage strike you?
- How has an improper view of God and/or sin played out in your own life in the past?
- How can we fight against the sin of complaining?
- What are some ways God provides escape from temptation?
Idolatry is a serious and pervasive sin, and it often presents itself in ways that we would not expect.
How can we "flee from idolatry?"
