This Easter, the apostle Paul reminds us in 1 Corinthians 15 that the gospel is first a proclamation to be received, not advice to be achieved. He anchors our faith in real historical events, Jesus’ death for our sins, His burial, and His resurrection according to the Scriptures. Paul then points to compelling proof, highlighting numerous eyewitnesses whose lives were forever changed by encountering the risen Christ. Finally, he shows us the power of the resurrection through his own story, wh...
In 1 Corinthians 5, the apostle Paul confronts a shocking case of sexual immorality that the Corinthian church had tolerated and even become proud of. The passage reminds us that sin distorts God’s design, destroys lives, and spreads like yeast through the entire church family. Rather than ignoring or celebrating sin, Paul calls the church to respond with broken-hearted sorrow, challenges them to deal with it head on, and seek the ultimate restoration of this man to God and the church famil...
In the fourth chapter of Paul’s letter to the Corinthians, he reminds them that Christian leaders are not celebrities but servants of Christ and stewards of what belongs to God. Our calling is not to build our own reputation but to faithfully manage the message, mission, and resources God has entrusted to us. Faithfulness matters more than applause because ultimately it is the Lord who evaluates our lives and ministry. This creates an “audience of One” mindset where we seek God’s approval ins...
In chapter 3 of his letter to the church in Corinth, Paul confronts the church’s spiritual immaturity, which had produced jealousy, division, and loyalty to human leaders rather than Christ. He reminds them that pastors and leaders are only servants, while God alone produces spiritual growth. Because Jesus Christ is the only true foundation of the church, believers must be careful how they build their lives and ministries. One day every believer’s work will be tested, revealing what was truly...
Paul continues addressing a divided church by showing that the message that creates unity is the very message the world calls foolish. The “word of the cross” divides humanity into two groups—those who are perishing and those who are being saved—and it exposes the limits of human wisdom. God purposely saves in a way that kills boasting: He chooses the weak, the low, and the unimpressive so that all credit goes to Him. Paul even points to his own preaching as an example—he refused to rely on e...
The apostle Paul launches into this corrective but hopeful letter by reminding the Corinthian church that their primary identity is not in their favorite leader, their gifts, or their preferences, but in Jesus Christ. They are called, sanctified, and held together by Him. Paul begins with gratitude, thanking God for the grace already at work among them, which reframes how we see a messy church. Instead of leading with frustration, he leads with thanksgiving rooted in God’s faithfulness. Yet h...
This week we wrap up the Formed for More series by focusing on what it means to live sent as true disciples of Jesus. We were reminded that from the very beginning Jesus calls ordinary people to follow Him and then sends them to help others do the same. Being a disciple means seeing ourselves as missionaries wherever God has placed us and wherever He chooses to send us. We explored how Jesus empowers His people to be His witnesses in everyday life from our neighborhoods to the nations. Living...
This weekend, we looked back and celebrated all God has done over the past year in and through the life of our church family. We also began looking ahead to everything He’s calling us into during the next season. As we reflect on Jesus feeding the 5,000, we’re reminded that God delights to work through people who are willing to play their part in the story He’s writing in the world. Often, it’s only after we step out in faith and obedience that God moves most powerfully. As we remember how Go...
This week we saw that serving is at the heart of following Jesus. We were confronted with how easily comfort, busyness, or fear can keep us from stepping into a life of service to Jesus. God has entrusted every one of us with time to give, talent to use, and treasure to invest for His purposes. Serving isn’t about doing everything, but faithfully doing something with what God has placed in our hands. The invitation is to stop holding back and begin stewarding our lives in a way that reflects ...
This week we talked about how disciples are forged in community and why following Jesus was never meant to be a solo journey. The second pillar in our discipleship flywheel at New Life is: group. From the beginning God said it is not good for man to be alone, demonstrating that community and relationships are an essential part of His design for us. Scripture reminds us that iron sharpens iron and that growth happens as we live out the “one another” commands. The early church gathered, grouped...
The miracle of peace is that God stepped into our world to drive fear out of our hearts with His presence. In Luke 2:1–14, the angels announce peace to terrified shepherds, reminding us that God meets ordinary, anxious people with extraordinary grace. Because Jesus has come near, we don’t have to be ruled by what makes us afraid and we don’t have to be overwhelmed by what we can’t control. God’s presence gives courage, and God’s power brings a peace the world can’t manufacture. Christmas remi...
The most important question any of us will ever answer is: who is Jesus Christ? The Christmas miracle of the Savior is that Jesus is eternally God who has always existed and through whom everything was made. His close friend and disciple, John, tells us that Jesus enters our world as light and life, bringing hope into places that feel dark and empty. Even though many people overlook and reject Him, His light brings healing and life to those who trust in Him. In becoming human, Jesus shows us ...
God’s Word has always been the one thing that changes everything, and we see that all through the Christmas story. When the angel speaks to Mary in Luke 1, her entire future is reshaped by a single message from God. In Luke 2, that same good news reaches shepherds and shows us that the arrival of the Messiah is meant for ordinary, overlooked people. Hebrews 1 pulls it all together by showing that God’s ultimate Word is not just a message but a person, Jesus, the radiance of God’s glory. The m...
