September 24, 2006: "1 Corinthians Recap"

Jeff Wall & Mike Phay preaching.

It isn't a stretch to see how Paul's writing to a first century church applies almost directly to our church situations in the 21st century.  As we look at 1 Corinthians we see the overarching themes that act as poles for our lives:  Living between the Cross and the Resurrection; and living in the Power of the Spirit, expressed as Love.  As we live in the tensions between these four overarching forces in our lives, we live the Christ-life as Family, Learners, Missionaries and Servants.  These are the identities that God calls us to live in as we live for Him in the world.
