Nathanael Coffman continues the Growing Pains series in 1 Corinthians 9 where Paul sets the example of laying down his rights out of love for what he is doing. Paul calls back to the Old Testament to show that as an Apostle, he has the right to make a living, but he is willing to […]
We move into 1 Corinthians 8 this week looking at how we are to handle ourselves and our convictions around others that may have differing convictions. There are core doctrines that are clearly defined in the Bible, and there are convictions that Christians hold that are not clearly defined in the Bible. If our convictions […]
This week we take a look at 1 Corinthians 7, where Paul spends time on marriage and singleness. We know there can be pros and cons of each lifestyle, and Paul encourages us to stay in the lifestyle the Lord blessed us with. As we dig in to verses 17-24, we see Paul turn from […]
Richard brings us back to 1 Corinthians to pick up where we left off in Paul’s teaching to the Corinthians as they grow in faith and how we can apply these lessons to us today. In 1 Corinthians 6, we see a couple of things that can really pertain to us in 2024. We should […]

Last week we looked at David in Jesus’ lineage, this week we take a look at Solomon. In 1 Kings 8 we see the commemoration of the Temple that would last for generations.
