Dr. John tackles the dangerous issue of spiritual pride through 1 Corinthians 4:6-7, revealing how pride believes it knows God's mind apart from Scripture and forgets our need for His grace.

Drawing from 1 Corinthians 3:12–17, he contrasts lasting materials—gold, silver, and precious stones—with wood, hay, and straw that will burn in the fire. Some will receive eternal rewards, while others will be saved but see their life's work go up in smoke.The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians.

Why do churches fight over their favourite pastors and teachers? Dr. John Neufeld shares a powerful story about friendship and honesty to address how the Corinthians created unhealthy divisions around their leaders. Using 1 Corinthians 3:5-9, he shows that spiritual immaturity often appears in how we treat church leadership.

In our culture's pursuit of spirituality, we often confuse profound human experiences with biblical spirituality. Dr. John Neufeld uses 1 Corinthians 2:14-16 to reveal the crucial difference between "natural" and "spiritual" people. While natural people reject God's wisdom as foolishness due to their earthly perspective, spiritual people discern eternal value in all things, remain unswayed by human opinion, and possess the mind of Christ—marked by humility, servanthood, and obedience.The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians.

Why would a leader boast about his weaknesses? Dr. John Neufeld explores Paul's surprising defense of his ministry in 1 Corinthians 2:1-5. When the Corinthian church criticized Paul as an unimpressive speaker who failed to reach society's elite, Paul responded by embracing his inadequacies. He refused flashy rhetoric, focusing solely on the cross of Christ, and admitted to fear and trembling—because God's power works best through human weakness.The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians.

What makes a great church? Dr. Neufeld examines the Corinthian church to discover that effective churches aren't built on impressive credentials or programs. Instead, God chooses the "foolish," weak, and lowly to showcase His power. Using Paul's teaching in 1 Corinthians, he shows that great churches are made of people who boast only in the Lord, carrying the message of the cross that provides wisdom, righteousness, sanctification, and redemption.The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians.

Why does Paul call the cross "the foolishness of God" when God is perfectly wise? Dr. Neufeld explores how the cross appears foolish to human wisdom but represents God's power to save. He identifies four fatal reasons people reject the cross: trusting human judgment over God's, following what's trendy rather than eternal truth, pursuing dead-end philosophies, and ignoring God's revelation.The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians.

Why do churches split over leaders and styles rather than core biblical truths? Dr. Neufeld examines 1 Corinthians 1:11-17, where Paul addresses four factions in the Corinthian church—those following Paul, Apollos, Peter, or claiming to follow Christ alone. Through Paul's pointed questions about baptism and the cross, Dr. Neufeld reveals that confidence in human skills was dividing Corinth, when their unity should have been centered on the power of the cross, not the style of their leaders.The Power of Christ in a Pagan World: Join Dr. John Neufeld for this 20-message series as he focuses on the book of 1 Corinthians.

Throughout history, kings have wielded absolute power, but God's design for Israel's monarchy was radically different. Dr. John examines Deuteronomy 17:14-20 and God's requirements for Israel's kings - they must be chosen by God and not acquire many horses or wives.

There are the love people, who believe that living in love, unity, and harmony with others is of utmost importance. Then there's the truth group of people. These Christians care deeply about the salvation of the lost and remind us that unless truth is declared, no one can be saved.
