Complementarianism in the Gathering

Corinthians 14:33-35

March 16, 2024 • Tim Cain • 1 Corinthians 14:33–35

Some verses are hard to understand. In I Corinthians 14:34 Paul writes that “Women should keep silent in the churches.” What does Paul mean in this verse and how does it relate to I Corinthians 11:5 where Paul seems to approve of women praying and prophesying? In this message we will take a deep dive into two different ways to interpret these verses and consider how we might apply what we learn to the service.

Welcoming Correction instead of Despising it

June 8, 2024 • Tim Cain • 1 Corinthians 16:10–18

How do you respond when someone points out an area in your life where you were wrong? Do you get defensive? Do you return the favor and point out all of the areas where the person who corrected you has fallen short? In I Corinthians 16:10-11 Paul calls the Corinthians to welcome Timothy’s correction rather than despising him for it. In this message we will consider what it might look like for us to apply this advice towards anyone who chooses to correct us out of love.

Making Plans and Trusting God

June 1, 2024 • Tim Cain • 1 Corinthians 16:5–9

What do you do when you work really hard to put together a plan only to find that nothing turned out the way you expected it to? It can be hard right? Now what about when your plans involved a relationship? When our relationships don’t go the way we planned we often find ourselves feeling lonely and heartbroken. In this passage we will see how Paul responded when his relationship with the Corinthians didn’t end up going the way he planned it to.

The Priority of Generosity

May 25, 2024 • Tim Cain • 1 Corinthians 16:1–4

What is it that makes money so attractive? Is it the freedom and the control that it offers? Is it the security it gives in the midst of all the uncertainties of the future? Or maybe it’s the comfort and pleasure that money promises? In this message, we will compare the promises of money and the promises of the Gospel and find that, in the end, Jesus is better. Lastly, we will consider what it would look like to live as if Jesus and not money were our greatest treasure.
