Week 6: 1 Corinthians 10-11 Oh boy. Men and women. Paul and the church. This one is a doozy, but in our screwed up culture, it’s definitely worth wrestling with. Listen to today’s Podcast in iTunes or Google Play The post Week 6 Day 4 – 1 Corinthians 11:1-16 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 6: 1 Corinthians 10-11 Eat whatever you want. Unless it causes someone to stumble. Eat food sacrificed to idols, unless they tell you it has been. And don’t worry about asking your butcher if that chicken was sacrificed. Unless you want to see what his response is. That could be fun. Listen to today’s […] The post Week 6 Day 3 – 1 Corinthians 10:23-33 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 6: 1 Corinthians 10-11 Well, we’re back. Sorry for the impromptu hiatus from the podcast, but I caught a nasty winter bug that took out my voice. Today on the podcast, Paul is going to tell us that we can’t have Jesus plus anything else. It’s all God or all nothing. Listen to today’s […] The post Week 6 Day 2 – 1 Corinthians 10:14-22 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 6: 1 Corinthians 10-11 Are you immune to sin? Not a chance! Paul tells us to keep our guard up against sin so that we don’t fall into the same traps that those who have gone before us did. Also, He won’t allow us to be tempted beyond what we can bare (a completely […] The post Week 6 Day 1 – 1 Corinthians 10:1-13 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 5: 1 Corinthians 8-9 Paul wanted to meet people where they were, but he didn’t want to leave them there. He wanted to find people in their current situations so he could share the life-altering gospel with them. The gospel changes and transforms us. So yes, Paul was all things to all people, but […] The post Week 5 Day 5 – 1 Corinthians 9:19-27 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 5: 1 Corinthians 8-9 What do we get rewarded for? For doing what we were told, or for going above and beyond what we’ve been assigned? Rewards are for things that go above and beyond obedience. God calls us all to obedience, but He loves the sacrifices of obedient children. Paul makes it very clear […] The post Week 5 Day 4 – 1 Corinthians 9:13-18 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 5: 1 Corinthians 8-9 Even though it feels like Paul is saying crazy things out of left field, he really is still on a really good train of thought. He’s just taking a little moment to set up a real-world example for us. And talking about oxen. It’s always good to talk about the […] The post Week 5 Day 3 – 1 Corinthians 9:1-12 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 5: 1 Corinthians 8-9 Just because you know something is okay to do, doesn’t make it a good idea. Have you thought about those around you? Paul has some words for us to that end today.

Week 5: 1 Corinthians 8-9 Do you have knowledge? I hope so. But Paul says you shouldn’t. And you should. Wait, which is it? Make up your mind, Paul! He’s got a very good point, and he’s going to make it very well over the next few chapters.

Week 4: 1 Corinthians 7 Have you give the Lord your whole heart, or are you a pew sitter? That’s the question Paul asks of us in this chapter. Are we asking the Lord to have His say in every aspect of our lives, including the decision to get married or not? Listen to today’s […] The post Week 4 Day 5 – 1 Corinthians 7:36-40 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 4: 1 Corinthians 7 Marriage is hard. Is it worth it? Yes. But if you don’t feel compulsion to get married, then don’t. Because it’s hard. Seriously, that’s what Paul has to say here–and anyone married for 20+ years will tell you it’s truth.

Week 4: 1 Corinthians 7 Breaking up is hard to do…so don’t. That’s Paul’s advice. But sometimes it’s inevitable when a spouse won’t stay. What Paul has to say about that may be hard, but in the end it may be better.

Week 4: 1 Corinthians 7 Sexual insanity seems to rule our nation today. While I think it’s far worse today, it still existed in Paul’s day. Paul is going to outline some good rules of thumb to live by when it comes to sex. Rules that are just as true today as they were in […] The post Week 4 Day 1 – 1 Corinthians 7:1-7 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 3: 1 Corinthians 5-6 We live in a day of rampant sexual immorality, just like the church of Corinth faced. What we are experiencing is nothing new, but we must hold true to what Paul taught the church in Corinth: don’t give up. Don’t justify your sin. Don’t wallow in your sin. Don’t excuse […] The post Week 3 Day 5 – 1 Corinthians 6:12-20 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 3: 1 Corinthians 5-6 Lawsuits are a devastating thing and have no place in the church. Paul tells us, “why not just be wronged? Why not just be cheated?” Isn’t the gospel and the saving grace of Jesus worth more than a few dollars? Or even several thousand dollars? Why sue someone else in […] The post Week 3 Day 4 – 1 Corinthians 6:7-11 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 3: 1 Corinthians 5-6 Paul calls us to judge between ourselves in matters of disputes within the church. The notion of not judging falls apart in 1 Corinthians, but that doesn’t mean we should just judge whomever and whenever we please. We must understand clearly what the Bible calls Christians to judge and what […] The post Week 3 Day 3 – 1 Corinthians 6:1-6 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 3: 1 Corinthians 5-6 We must never judge people that don’t claim the name of Jesus and live in sin. We must have mercy and compassion on them so they may know the Lord. But for those who live in habitual, unrepentant sin and claim the name of Jesus–well, Paul has some harsh words […] The post Week 3 Day 2 – 1 Corinthians 5:9-13 first appeared on DarrenHibbs.com.

Week 3: 1 Corinthians 5-6 How do we view grace to those in the church who are continuing on in unrepentant, habitual sin? Paul has some harsh words–judgment even–for the church that allows that kind of behavior.
