Kingdom In Us vs Culture Around Us

This powerful exploration of 1 Corinthians challenges us to examine how easily we can allow the culture around us to reshape our hearts and minds more than the kingdom of God within us. Just as the Corinthian church—only five years after being planted with such passion—began dividing over trivial matters like who baptized them and which leaders they followed, we too face the constant temptation to let worldly values infiltrate our faith. The message unpacks three essential callings for every believer: we are called to be sanctified, set apart as holy ones devoted to God rather than conforming to the patterns of this world; we are called to fellowship with Christ through the daily disciplines of prayer, scripture reading, worship, and stillness that may seem boring but are vital to our spiritual victory; and we are called to glory in God alone, boasting in His wisdom and provision rather than our own accomplishments.
