Crossroads (Week 1) – Introduction (1 Corinthians 1:1-9)

Intersections can also be called crossroads; they are literally places where two roads cross. Life contains plenty of crossroads, not just when you’re driving.

This week, we’re kicking off a series entitled “Crossroads.” Pastor Clay is going to be walking us through the books of the Bible known as 1 & 2 Corinthians. The city of Corinth was at the crossroads of east - west, and north - south trading routes for the known world. It was a city filled with people, prosperity, and sinful practices. In the middle of it all was the church, struggling to figure out how they were to be "in the world, but not of the world.”

The culture that we live in today is not that different from the culture that Corinthian Christians found themselves in. The Apostle Paul addresses a host of subjects that are very relevant for the church today.
