Chris continues the series in 1 Corinthians 11, looking at what Paul has to say about the communion meal and the way that it was being observed in the church in Corinth – particularly the need to bring God’s Agape love to the meal; to recognise others as part of the body; and hence to be in unity with our brothers and sisters in Christ.

Everything is permissible but not everything is beneficial. In the final verses of 1 Cor 10 the Apostle Paul draws together his arguments in three powerful sound-bites: Everything is permissible but not everything is constructive. No one should seek his own good but the good of others. Whatever you do, do for the glory of God. Chris applies this advice to our worship and work today and invites us consider the coming week.

Chris applies the Apostle Paul’s warnings from Israel’s history to our lives and reminds us that we can not endure temptation without Christ.

Chris helps us to identify God’s purpose for our church and challenges us to do whatever it takes to fulfil our calling.

Chris continues the series of 1 Corinthians in Chapter 8, drawing parallels between our situation today and the culture of the day in which the early church found itself. He reiterates Paul’s conclusion that what matters is not our often inadequate and incomplete knowledge of God, but that God knows and loves us.

At the end of our series on 1 Corinthians, Chris summarises the studies so far and answers questions from the congregation.

Chris continues the series in 1 Corinthians 7, as Paul addresses specific questions and situations of the Corinthians.

As Chris preaches on 1 Corinthians Chapter 6, Paul reminds us that we cannot separate our everyday lives from our faith. We need to live lives that reflect God’s Kingdom.
