1 Corinthians 1

Where do you find your significance? 

We build our answers so carefully—out of résumés, reputations, academic credentials, and ministry accomplishments. But in his first letter to the Corinthians, Paul lands like a stone in still water, completely flipping the world's value system upside down.

Before Paul addresses a single problem in this messy, fractured church, he does something radical: he reminds them of their identity. Because lasting transformation is never driven by shame or fear. It is driven by knowing who you are in Christ. Identity always precedes behavior.

In my latest blog post, we dive into 1 Corinthians 1:1–31 to explore the difference between a "try harder" spiritual life and a "trust deeper" faith.
