Big Idea: A clear understanding of the gospel protects me from embracing worldly wisdom.

This Sunday, we continued in 1 Corinthians 1:18–25, where Paul says the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

We saw that God has made the wisdom of the world foolish (v. 20), and that in His wisdom, the world did not know Him through its own wisdom (v. 21). Instead, God chose to save through what the world considers foolish—the preaching of Christ crucified.

This passage calls us to reject the wisdom of the age and embrace the truth and power of the gospel.

In this message, Pastor Steve continues our series in 1 Corinthians by addressing the issue of division in the church. Paul urges believers to stay united under Christ—not divided by personalities or preferences. When we shift our focus away from Jesus, disunity takes root. This sermon challenges us to examine where our allegiance lies and calls us back to the centrality of Christ in all things.

Big Idea: Remembering what Christ has done clarifies who I am because of Him.

This Sunday, we began a new series in 1 Corinthians 1:1–9, where Paul reminds the church that their identity is found not in their works, but in Christ alone. We were enriched in Him in every way—in all speech, in all knowledge, and sustained by His grace. As we look at what Christ has done, we gain clarity about who we are. Because of Christ, we are called, enriched, and sustained.

This Sunday, we explored John 1:43-49, where Jesus calls His disciples and invites them to follow Him. Philip found Nathanael and said, “Come and see.” Through this passage, we are reminded that following Christ is an invitation not just for ourselves but for others as well. Who will you invite to believe?

Big Idea: You don’t need a platform—just obedience. Use your influence for Christ.

This week, we focused on Jude 1:20-23, looking at how influence isn’t about status but about faithfulness. We explored how our walk with Christ shapes our impact, how small acts of love can make a difference, and how obedience to God can change lives. True influence starts with daily faithfulness and pointing others to Jesus.
