A group of people following Jesus together while helping others do the same
We're ready to dive into chapter 3 BUT FIRST...we'll get a bit of context for the next few chapters by reading 2 Corinthians 7.
March 23, 2025 We start a new season exploring 2 Corinthians. We'll also begin experimenting with some spiritual practices starting with silence and solitude.
Ammi and Keith start tackling the ins and outs of spiritual practices. Specifically silence and solitude. We've begun our study of 2 Corinthians so buckle up for a great season of interviews and discussion on the MMQB. Some resources we discussed in this episode include: 1) The Celebration of Discipline by Richard Foster https://a.co/d/2uaiMSh 2) What is "Silence & Solitude?" https://youtu.be/BSipS-znHFA?si=d7zYpICj6c6UrPOy
Ammi and Keith finish up (maybe?) their discussion on 1 Corinthians. A few resources discussed can be found here: The Gospel Precisely by Matthew Bates: https://a.co/d/9cllDY5 The King Jesus Gospel by Scot Mcknight: https://a.co/d/b0oy5x9 Let us know your questions or thoughts so far by sending us an email at: clemsonfoothills@gmail.com

Paul re-aligns our tiny view of resurrection
February 16, 2025 Let's dig into what Paul is wrapping this letter up with, as he reminds the Corinthians of the Gospel. We're unpacking four crucial words: 1)Gospel 2)Crucified 3)Christ 4)Resurrection
Is Paul limiting the Spirit? Complete silence from the ladies? hmmm...let's take a look at how Paul shepherd's this Jesus community in Corinth.
Excel in building up the church...that's Paul's words. That's what he's spurring the Corinthians to do. Some stuff about languages and prophecy are in there too.
Ammi and Keith welcome in Dr. Benjamin White, religion department chair at Clemson University. Dr. White shares his own studies on the apostle Paul and more specifically 1 Corinthians 13. Send us your thoughts or questions. Clemsonfoothills@gmail.com
Clanging cymbals? Love as the ultimate marker of christian community? This isn't your grandparents 1 Corinthians 13. Paul is corrective and admonishing of the Corinthians. He doesn't ask them to consider this ethic of love but demands it.
Ammi, Keith & Stefon dig into a couple of touchy subjects: Criticism & Forgiveness. Lots of good stuff in this one. A couple of resources we discussed are: 1)Total Forgiveness by RT Kendall 2) What forgiveness is & isn't: Check it out HERE: https://0d4f8f10-d614-429b-abb5-3f0ac053bd7e.usrfiles.com/ugd/0d4f8f_faa81e0dda8b4bacb7b68271eb4b85e4.pdf If you have a question or comment please feel free to send us an email at: clemsonfoothills@gmail.com
Paul continues his unity themes of one body working together to achieve the Fathers purpose on earth through the empowering of the Holy Spirit. His metaphor of the church and the human body is classic, but we need to stop a minute to take a hard look at 2 qualities that will get in the way of any kind of unity and those are a critical spirit and un-forgiveness. Please take a look at our resource page for today's slideshow, as well as other helpful resources: https://www.clemsonfoothills.com/single-post/jesus-communities-1-corinthians

Gifts, lots of them. Check out Paul's instruction on the generous gifts God gives His church to achieve His purpose!
Catch up with Keith, Ammi and Royce as they discuss all kinds of good stuff. We take a 50,000 foot view of Corinthians and figure out how to be perfect...maybe. Got a question, idea or thought you'd like to share? Send it over to clemsonfoothills@gmail.com
Here we go...head coverings, angels, long hair or short hair...oh my. Let's study this thing out here in chapter 11. Got any questions? send them to us at clemsonfoothills@gmail.com
Everything is permissible? Everything? Really? Let's find out what Paul was talking about as Steve tackles chapter 10 in 1 Corinthians.
Paul is relentless in his pursuit of loving God and loving people well. Check out chapter 9 as he continues showing us what it truly looks like to love others as Jesus has loved us.
Ammi and Keith tackle the question of what is today's practical application of not eating meat sacrificed to idols? We scratched the surface (if we got that deep), but we'll be (actually, Paul will) addressing this topic over the next few chapters at least. Send us any questions or comments to clemsonfoothills@gmail.com
Ammi takes us into our next chapter, discussing Paul's use of the Shema and why it was meant to be so impactful back then and what it means for us today.

Holy podcasts! This one is huge. What a great discussion on 1 Corinthians 5. Joey,, Keith and Ammi talk about everything from sex to greed to government. It's a long one, but well worth the listen. If you have any comments or questions send us an email at clemsonfoothills@gmail.com
November 3, 2024 Paul dives into the messy world of the Corinthian church where pride is reigning, but he makes an impassioned plea to wake up, grieve and align themselves with the Jesus way of life and community. Sounds like a message not just for our 1st century family, but to our modern ways today!

October 20, 2024 We're voyaging deeper into Paul's letter to the community of Jesus followers in Corinth. Envy, jealousy, bitterness and divisions are just the starting point for Paul, but he is continually calling them and US back to the gospel of the crucified Christ! This ancient call to our brothers and sisters in Corinth is as pertinent for us today as for them back then. Questions: send us a note at clemsonfoothills@gmail.com
It's a new book! We've moved into Corinthians. Paul jumps right in as well. Join us as we begin exploring the world of Paul & Corinth and us!
