Taste and See

1 Corinthians 10:23-11:1

May 13, 2018 • Rev. David Juelfs

What is in that bag on your back?

We all have it… that pack slung across our shoulders. What's in it? Does it weigh us down making every step harder and the journey longer? Or is it full of what we need? And not just what we need for the journey, but so much more? Always something that supports and empowers us. Think for a moment about what sits on your shoulders. Does it push you down or pull you up?

Take a moment and read 1 Corinthians 10:23–11:1. Ignore for a second the specific first century Corinthian issues pastor Paul is addressing and look at the basic worldview principles he is explaining. Do you live in a world of scarcity or abundance? How you answer that question will shape every part of your life. Scarcity or abundance? In your marriage? In your health? In your finances? In your parenting? In your vocation?

Scarcity or abundance? What do you think Jesus wants you to know about the nature of his world that we live in? Meditate on 1 Corinthians 10:23–11:1, pray through it, struggle with it, and listen for the Spirit. What is he saying to us?

I can't wait to worship together.

Pastor David
