One of the most exciting realities of the Christian life is that we have an opportunity to do things that last for eternity. Today, as we dive into 1st Corinthians 12, we'll see that the Lord gives every born-again believer spiritual gifting to have a role in God's work in and through His church.

Sunday, November 2, 2025"We Believe: The Church" - Tyler TankersleySermon based on 1 Corinthians 12:12-31(reading by Joshua Miller)
Jeremiah 47-48; Psalms 72-73; 1 Corinthians 12-13
1 Corinthians 12:1-31 God has uniquely gifted you for the good of the church.
24 Jeremiah 49; 19 Psalms 70-71; 1 Corinthians 12-13
In this teaching on 1 Corinthians 12:1-11, Pastor Tyler Warner and Calvary Chapel Trussville discover that Christianity is far more than an intellectual exercise or moral philosophy—it's a living, breathing relationship with a God who actively speaks and moves among us today. This passage dismantles two dangerous extremes: the dead religion of mute idols where God is distant and silent, and the chaotic abuse of spiritual power without biblical guidance. Paul reminds us that we serve neither a statue nor an unpredictable force, but the living God who has poured out His Holy Spirit on all flesh, just as Joel prophesied. The spiritual gifts—wisdom, knowledge, faith, healing, miracles, prophecy, discernment, tongues, and interpretation—are not relics of the early church but present realities meant to build us up as a body. What's revolutionary here is that every single believer has been entrusted with supernatural power to contribute to God's mission. We're not spectators watching God work from a distance; we're participants through whom the Holy Spirit manifests Himself to the world. The Trinity itself—Father, Son, and Spirit working in perfect unity—models how our diverse gifts should function together. When we gather, we should expect God to show up, not just in the teaching but through prophecies, healings, and supernatural encounters that remind us we're not studying ancient history but living in the continuation of the Book of Acts.

This is Part 3 of the series Gifts of the Holy Spirit. Krista Cowan shares an awesome illustration of how God moves in our lives, and her obedience to the Holy Spirit.
Questions about whether the claim in 1 Corinthians that “no one can say ‘Jesus is Lord' except in the Holy Spirit” is a black-and-white tool for discernment, and how to have a better relationship with Jesus when reading the Bible feels like a chore and you can't remember to pray. Since First Corinthians 12:3 says that “no one can say ‘Jesus is Lord' except in the Holy Spirit,” if TV evangelists who seem to preach another gospel and act overtly un-Christlike claim Jesus is Lord, is that evidence the Holy Spirit dwells in them? Is this a black-and-white tool for discernment? How can I have a better relationship with Jesus when reading the Bible feels like a chore and I can never remember to pray? I feel like I don't know him at all.
This episode centers on the theme of spiritual gifts and purpose within the Christian faith. Jim Davis emphasizes that every individual is uniquely designed by God and equipped with spiritual gifts to serve others, not to earn more love but as an expression of love for God. Drawing from scriptures such as Ephesians 2:10, Psalm 139, and 1 Corinthians 12, he encourages listeners to discover and use their gifts for the benefit of the church community, sharing personal stories and practical advice for healing from church hurt and finding joy through service. The episode concludes with an invitation to take a spiritual gifts assessment and a reminder that true fulfillment comes from serving with the gifts God has given.
God designed His church with divine order, diverse gifts, and a distinct purpose—not for competition or clout, but for love and edification.

Enter into the joy of your lord.'
Paul's letter to the Corinthian church is a response to real questions by real people whom Paul knows and loves. 1 Corinthians is certainly a practical and theological answer to questions, but at its core, it is an example of shepherding a flock of sinners saved by grace.

Title: Living Room – FellowshipScripture Reading: Acts 2:42, Ephesians 5:30, John 13:35Series: The 242 BlueprintThis message is the second in the series "The 242 Blueprint," which examines Acts 2:42 as a foundational model for the church. This week's sermon focuses on the topic of fellowship, using the analogy of watching football in a living room to explore what it means to be part of the Christian community.The message outlines three biblical facets of fellowship:The Player: Recognizing that we are not isolated individuals but members of a team—the body of Christ. This requires a shift from individualization to incorporation.The Position: Every member has a unique function and spiritual gifts to use for the church. This calls for a shift from inaction to involvement.The Purpose: The purpose of the church's love for one another is to be so extraordinary that it shows the world who Jesus is. This requires a shift from insularity to invitation.
