  • And such were some of you

    Paul found the work of preaching the gospel in the decadent society of Corinth a frightening and uncomfortable experience.  Yet it was there that he saw some of the greatest triumphs of the gospel.

  • Fools never listen! (12:13-21)

    Jesus spoke about the Day of Judgment and the reality of hell.  But one man in the crowd wasn't listening.  He was too busy thinking about getting his fair share here on earth.  Many Christians think it's their job to campaign for justice in this world.  Jesus didn't.

  • Courage and cowardice (12:1-)

    There were many reasons why people closed their ears against Jesus's words.  But one of the most common was cowardice.  They were afraid of what other people would say and do.  Listen to what Jesus has to say to cowards.
