Stay Healthy

April 14, 2024 • Aaron Schaut • 1 Corinthians 12:12–27, Romans 12:4–5, Ephesians 4:2

It's common to think of faith as a private decision, but Scripture paints a different picture. According to Paul, following Jesus intrinsically incorporates us into a living organism called the body of Christ. But this organism will only be thrive if we understand and pursue what healthiness truly looks like.

Women Should Be Silent?!

June 2, 2024 • Aaron Schaut • 1 Corinthians 14:34–40, 1 Timothy 2:12–14, 1 Corinthians 11:5

Paul's instruction about women at the end of 1 Corinthians 14 is one of the most misunderstood texts in Scripture. Let's talk about it, and along the way, learn some important skills for how to wisely and faithfully interpret the Bible.

Structure and The Spirit

May 26, 2024 • Aaron Schaut • 1 Corinthians 14:20–33, 1 John 4:1

Desire without discernment leads to distortion of the gifts of the Holy Spirit. But embracing God's structure for His good gifts allows them to flourish in and through us to bless others and glorify Jesus.

Going Public

May 19, 2024 • Aaron Schaut • 1 Corinthians 14:1–19, Jude 20–21, Romans 8:26–27

The Holy Spirit gives good gifts to the church so that everyone can be encouraged and edified. These gifts are sometimes misunderstood or even abused, but the apostle Paul encourages us to eagerly desire them and practice them publicly in a healthy and helpful way.
