  • Love On Mission | 1 Cor. 16: 5-14

    Love On Mission | 1 Cor. 16: 5-14
    2026/02/05
    *We apologize for the lesser audio quality of the recording this week. Please bear with us as we resolve some unexpected, ongoing technical issues. Discover what authentic Christian mission looks like when powered by love in this powerful exploration of Paul's ministry principles. Learn how the apostle Paul corrected the Corinthian church not out of harshness, but from a heart of love that had built deep relational equity. This message reveals three essential aspects of love-driven ministry that every believer needs to understand.First, explore how love on mission prioritizes God's work over personal desires. Paul chose to stay in Ephesus during a season of great ministry opportunity rather than immediately visiting the Corinthians he longed to see. Like a dedicated farmer who continues harvesting during peak season, Paul demonstrates the sacrifice required for effective kingdom work. This principle challenges modern believers to examine whether they prioritize personal comfort or kingdom fruitfulness.Second, discover the critical importance of discipleship in Christian mission. Paul's relationship with Timothy shows how investing deeply in others creates disciples who can carry on the work. Timothy, despite his youth, became Paul's apostolic representative because of intentional discipleship. This raises two vital questions every Christian must answer: Are you contributing to God's kingdom in ways that would be missed if you were gone, and have you discipled someone to continue your work?Third, learn how to handle disagreements in ministry without causing division. When Apollos disagreed with Paul's request to visit Corinth, Paul didn't create conflict but trusted God's timing. This teaches believers that disagreement and division don't have to be synonymous, and many church conflicts could be avoided by putting disagreements in God's hands rather than insisting on being right.The message concludes with Paul's call for strength and watchfulness, correcting misconceptions that love-driven ministry is passive or weak. Instead, it requires a warlike mentality against selfishness, laziness, and strife. Love serves as the operating system that powers all authentic Christian mission - without it, even impressive ministries become meaningless.This teaching is perfect for church leaders, ministry workers, missionaries, and any believer seeking to understand biblical principles for effective Christian service. Whether you're struggling with correction in relationships, wondering about your role in God's mission, or dealing with disagreements in ministry, this message provides practical biblical wisdom for love-driven service.

    Gospel Giving | 1 Cor. 16:1-4
    2026/01/22
    Biblical giving and financial stewardship are essential topics for Christian spiritual growth and discipleship. This comprehensive guide explores what the Bible teaches about money, tithing, and generous giving based on First Corinthians 16:1-4 and other key Scripture passages. Learn why God addresses money in the Bible and how financial stewardship impacts your relationship with Christ. Discover the biblical principles of systematic giving, proportionate generosity, and sacrificial worship through your finances. Understanding biblical stewardship helps believers grow in spiritual maturity while supporting church ministry and missions. Paul's instructions to the Corinthian church reveal universal expectations for Christian giving that apply to all believers today. Explore how regular, planned giving differs from sporadic donations and why first fruits giving matters more than leftover generosity. Church accountability and transparency in handling offerings are crucial for maintaining trust and proper stewardship. The spiritual benefits of giving include proving genuine love for Christ, growing in righteousness, and reflecting the Gospel through sacrificial generosity. Biblical giving is not about earning God's love but responding to the love already shown through Christ's sacrifice. Whether you're new to faith or seeking to deepen your understanding of Christian stewardship, these biblical principles provide practical guidance for honoring God with your finances. Learn how proportionate giving based on prosperity differs from legalistic tithing requirements and discover the spiritual transformation that comes through generous, cheerful giving.
