Are We Not Being Merely Human?

We are going to be in 1 Corinthians for most of the year. I've titled the series "A Hot Mess" because it really does capture the Corinthian Church and the American Church. From divisions, discipline, sexuality issues, male/female dynamics, gifts (spiritual and otherwise), love of one another and neighbor, glorifying God, and the basics of the good news message. The one constant through all this is the good news. The gospel has something to say to all of life, and the aim of the Corinthian letter is to bring the church into faithful obedience to King Jesus in all of life both individually and corporately. The Church is not perfect right now, and we mess up on a lot of things. We are truly a hot mess, but we are Jesus' hot mess and in his love he is making us whole.
