Synopsis :

The book of 1 Corinthians contains Paul’s exhortations to the church in Corinth, which was struggling with a lack of unity brought about by arrogance and divisiveness.

In this accessible study, pastor and author Jay Thomas helps readers understand the only remedy for such disunity: the pride-defeating truth of the gospel. At the heart of 1 Corinthians is the reality that the good news of Jesus Christ miraculously saves, changes, and unites God’s people.

Over the course of 12 weeks, these studies explore books of the Bible and:

• Ask thoughtful questions to spur discussion
• Show how each passage unveils the gospel
• Tie the text in with the whole story of Scripture

• Help you better understand and apply God’s Word
