His direct responses to their shortcomings provide us a window into daily church life in the first century. But this letter also paints a vivid picture of what any church can become by the grace of God.

Is your faith countercultural?
When he wrote his first epistle to the church in Corinth, Paul wanted to address two cultural issues that the Christians in the city were wrestling with: prosperity and entertainment. He urged the young believers struggling in the midst of Graeco--Roman society to live lives shaped by Christ. Believers today are not immune to these same worldly temptations the Corinthian church was facing.
In Transformed in Christ:...

We are summoned to the altar of God's presence through the finished work of Christ on our behalf. The Christian life is presenting ourselves to Him every moment, of every day, all the days of our life. This is what I am calling, "Life on the Altar."

Many of the problems plaguing the church today, such as apathy, conflict, spiritual pride, and spiritual abuse, stem from a poor understanding of who the church is in Christ and God's purpose for her. Whenever we don't understand the purpose of something, we are prone to misuse it. No doubt the newly founded churches in Ephesus and Asia Minor struggled with a lack of understanding as well and, therefore, were plagued with many of the same issues.

The Joyful Letter: Paul's Epistle to the Philippians
The apostle Paul says, contentment doesn't come to us naturally. He gives us the key when he writes, "I have learned in whatever state I am, to be content (Philippians 4:11)." We can conclude from this that contentment is a learned state. Unfortunately, we do have to learn from our experience. We desperately pursue what we think will satisfy us. Finding disappointment, we move from one thing to...
