Welcome to our current podcast series, "Christian Living In The Current of Culture," where we study the timeless and relevant truths of 1 Corinthians. Each week, we explore how the Apostle Paul's words guide us in navigating the complexities of living for Christ in today's world.

This week, Jan Verbruggen brings us a message from 1 Corinthians 12:1-11 titled “The Spirit's Gracious Gifts for the Church”. This text begins Paul's discussion on spiritual gifts. We see that the Holy Spirit gives spiritual gifts to bring glory to Christ, so that no one may boast, and for the common good as the Spirit sees fit. The working of the Spirit must lead to the affirmation of who Christ is—Lord of all. Even if you do not know what your gifts are, be willing to get involved in serving the church which is often a key way you will distinguish what gifts the Spirit has given you. Let us strive to build up the church which will enable you to use the gifts God has given you and bring glory to Christ.
