God's Grace for an Imperfect Church | Let All Your Things Be Done with Love - Season 4, Episode 129

from Eastland Baptist Messages · host Benjamin Siens

What happens when a church possesses talent, wealth, and spiritual gifts yet lacks the binding force that holds it together? Pastor Dorrell confronts this paradox through Paul's closing exhortation to the Corinthian church: "Let all your things be done with charity." The sermon argues that love—not intellect or ability—is the fundamental solution to every relational and spiritual problem. By examining Paul's diagnosis of the Corinthian church's failures (division, arrogance, selfishness, and pride), Pastor Dorrell illuminates how agape love functions as the governing principle for all Christian conduct, from the mundane to the consequential. He challenges listeners to make love their defining characteristic, filtering every word, decision, and action through the lens of another's highest good, even when doing so demands sacrifice.Eastland is a Place to BelongEastland Baptist Church is located in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
