A Gifted People - Sermon

What does it mean to be gifted? Usually we think that gifted people are a limited group of special people, but the Bible tells us that all people in Christ receive gifts. Pastor James explores 1 Corinthians 12 and how the church has neglected its gifts. (Original sermon date 19 May 2024)

Core of the Gospel-Discussion

Core of the Gospel-Sermon

What is the one thing that you can’t take away from the Christian faith without making it something other than the Christian faith? Pastor James answers this in today’s sermon on 1 Corinthians 15. (Original sermon date 12 May 24)

Love and the Community of God - Discussion

What does Christianity have to offer in terms of living in the world today? Is 1 Corinthians 13 aspirational or something else? How do we get to a community that lives out these values? Pastor James and Pastor Dena discuss this and more in this week's podcast.

Love and the Community of God - Sermon

Typically, 1 Corinthians 13 is heard at weddings; however, it's not a wedding text. It's about the community of God. It's about how we put all sorts of differently gifted individuals together and make them a community. Pastor James explores how 1 Corinthians 13 should be applied to the church rather than a wedding. (Original sermon date: 5 May 2024)

The Danger Within - Discussion

What's the difference between Christian unity and uniformity? How does this affect the way that we live out our faith? Pastor James and Pastor Dena discuss this in today's episode.

Community Value - Sermon

How should a Christian community be known? What is the defining community marker? Theology? History? Service? Pastor James opens up a familiar text in 1 Corinthians 13 to talk about the necessity of love in the community of Jesus.

The Danger Within - Sermon

Many Christians fear the dangers to the faith that come from outside of the Christian community, yet there are a number of dangers that come from within. Pastor Dena discusses 1 Corinthians 1:10-18 to show how Christian unity is such an elusive but necessary value.
