1 Corinthians, Part 3: Stop Comparing Your Life | CALEB BALDWIN (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Comparison has a way of turning someone else's success into evidence that we're falling behind. We compare careers, marriages, families, finances, accomplishments, and even our faith—and before long, those comparisons begin telling us who we are. In 1 Corinthians 3–4, Paul gives us a different way to measure our lives. God gives the growth, while we're called to be faithful with what He has entrusted to us. Instead of building a life that looks impressive, Jesus invites us to build something tha
1 Corinthians, Part 2: Stop Keeping Score | PAUL CROUTHAMEL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We live surrounded by scorecards. Success, money, appearance, influence, intelligence, achievement—even our spirituality can become ways of measuring ourselves against other people. The church in Corinth wasn't all that different. They were chasing status, impressive leaders, human wisdom, and power. But Paul points them toward something completely different: the cross. What looked weak and foolish to the world was actually the wisdom and power of God. And the cross isn't only the place where Je
1 Corinthians, Part 1: Stop Trying to Prove Yourself | PAUL CROUTHAMEL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
We spend a lot of our lives trying to prove something. That we're successful enough. Important enough. Good enough. Worth noticing. And without realizing it, those things can begin shaping not only how we see ourselves, but how we see everyone around us. As Paul begins his letter to the church in Corinth, he reminds a community obsessed with status, achievement, and recognition that followers of Jesus don't have to build their identity or compete for significance. In Jesus, our identity has alre
Make Room, Part 6: What If They're Curious? | PAUL CROUTHAMEL (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What if the people around you are more open to conversations about life, faith, and Jesus than you think? In Luke 19, Zacchaeus was successful, powerful, and deeply disliked. But underneath everything people could see, he was curious enough about Jesus to climb a tree just to get a better look. Jesus noticed him, called him by name, and moved toward him. That encounter changed Zacchaeus' life. As we close the Make Room series, we're looking at what it means to recognize that same curiosity in th
Make Room, Part 5: Who Are You Carrying? | DR. RICK VIA (opens the original)
Read excerpt
What would you be willing to do for someone you care about? In Mark 2, four friends refuse to let a crowded room, a blocked doorway, or even a roof keep them from getting their friend to Jesus. Their story is a reminder that sometimes loving someone means continuing to show up, continuing to care, and refusing to give up even when it seems like nothing is changing. Who has God placed in your life that you can keep making room for? A friend, neighbor, coworker, or family member may be closer than
