Cleaning Up a Jacked Up Church Preview

When we think of the early church in the first century, we usually get these warm fuzzy feelings about community, love, how they shared their stuff, how God pulled off crazy miracles, and how people came to know Jesus by the thousands.

Not Corinth. Corinth was a jacked up church.

The church in Corinth was small, maybe 50ish people. And this small community was marked by division, by being more influenced by culture than influencing culture, by being proud of their sexual sin, by chaotic worship gatherings, by drunkenness at communion, by greed, and by bringing lawsuits against each other. So, God speaks through Paul, who planted the church, to speak the gospel into the church to clean up the mess the church was in.

No matter where you’re at spiritually: a skeptic, an investigator, a new believer, or a seasoned Christ-follower, 1st Corinthians is a book that will speak deeply into your life. Because the truth is, we’re all jacked up and need Jesus to clean us up.
