The Corinthian Complex – Gifts for the Church1 Corinthians 12 | September 7, 2025⸻We continue in our Corinthian Complex series, Christ Richards unpacks 1 Corinthians 12 and helps us confront confusion for collective clarity around spiritual gifts. Many of us grew up in church traditions where the Holy Spirit was more of an afterthought than an active presence. But Paul’s letter to the Corinthians shows us that the Spirit gives “grace-in-action abilities” — spiritual gifts — to serve, build up, and glorify Christ.This message walks through: • 🕊 How spiritual gifts always point to Christ, not ourselves (vv. 1–6) • 🏗 How the Spirit gives gifts for the good of the whole church, not personal gain (vv. 7–11) • 🎶 How God designed unity through diversity — like a symphony of different instruments (vv. 12–26) • 🌱 How discipleship relationships help us discover, develop, and refine our gifts (vv. 27–31)Christ calls us to stop sidelining the Holy Spirit, discover our gifts in community, and use them for the flourishing of Christ’s body. Don’t miss next week as we ask the hard question, “Why?” and dive into The Validity of the Resurrection.
