Love is a word that is overused, abused, misunderstood, underutilized, and thrown around casually in our day. Paul, in writing to the Corinthian church, seeks to show them the most excellent way. The way of love. So what does this most excellent way look like, and how do we begin to live in such a way? Join us this Sunday as we seek to live the most excellent way.

"Communication is often viewed as the key to a healthy marriage—and for good reason. But Scripture shows us that healthy communication doesn't begin with better techniques; it begins with surrendered hearts. In this week's message, Pastor Russ reminds us that our relationships are meant to reflect Christ's love for the Church. As we surrender to Jesus and walk in obedience to his Word, our communication can bring healing instead of hurt, unity instead of division, and ultimately display the gospel to the world around us."

In chapter 12, Paul began to admonish the church to consider the nature of spiritual gifts within the church. Individuals within the church really wanted to have the gift of speaking in tongues, but Paul says that they should rather think of themselves as a body with many parts, all working together, though each part if different. It is within this context that Paul speaks of the nature of love. Yes, this is the chapter that is often read at weddings, and that can be fitting. However, in the original context, Paul is telling the church that these gifts of the Spirit, no matter how impressive, mean nothing if the church does not love one another. Furthermore, prophecy is a superior gift, and Paul explains why in chapter 14.   :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

This message, preached by Pastor Brock on May 24, 2026, continues our series on 1 Corinthians.

Our passage this morning is one you've probably heard before, likely at a wedding. But Paul didn't write these words for a wedding, rather, to a church that was in danger of falling apart. Paul says that they've championed some gifts over others, some people over others. He says that giving everything to the poor and similar other-oriented actions, though good, can be done with selfish motives for the approval of an audience. And if what we're doing is performative, then we don't have love. And if we don't have love, Paul says we have nothing. We are nothing. And we've gained nothing. Real love is a verb. It does something to us and then it invites us to move outward toward another human being not for the sake of being seen but because that is the nature of love.

This message, preached by Pastor Brock on May 17, 2026, continues our series on the First Epistle of Paul to the Corinthians.

It's not until we recognize that what is described in 1 Corinthians 13 is not man-made love, but the very love of God Himself, that we begin to understand our need for Him if we are to love others. The only way His love can truly be seen in us is through His enabling power. In other words, if we are to genuinely live a life of loving others, it will only become a reality as we depend by faith on Jesus in our daily living.

The Lord said very clearly to me, as I was meditating on this very passage: “I have given you the most excellent way. I've given you the ministry of love.” And the Lord says that to each of you who has Christ in you. Moms, if you ever feel like you're not enough… God has given YOU the most excellent way. You have the ability to love. Who else needs to hear that? You may not have the gift of service or administration, but you have love. You may not have a public platform or a wide audience, but you have love. You may not have what she has or he has, but you have love. If God has given you his Son, and he's put in you His Spirit… then he's given you the most excellent way. And out of you should come the greatest gift… the gift of LOVE.

Anthony Gammage preaches on 1 Corinthians 13:1-13 on Sunday, May 10, 2026.

1 Corinthians 13:1-8If I speak in the tongues[a] of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast,[b] but do not have love, I gain nothing.4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. 8 Love never fails.

In this week's message at The Mountain Church, Samuel Goulet walks us through what the Bible says about the gifts of the Holy Spirit and why they matter for our church family. He reminds us that gifts are a grace from God—not something we earn—and they're given “for the common good,” to build others up, not to elevate ourselves. From wisdom and faith to healing, prophecy, discernment, and tongues, Samuel encourages us to stay rooted in Scripture, let love guide every gift, and keep our identity grounded in Jesus. The invitation is simple: let's step off the sidelines, use what God has given us, and grow into a healthy, united church that strengthens one another and brings Jesus to our city.

1 Corinthians 13: How to Love Without Strings is the topic that will be discussed today on RIOT Podcast, a Christian Discipleship Podcast. How can you serve, give, and sacrifice… yet still lack true love? In this week's episode, we dive deep into 1 Corinthians 13, one of the most quoted yet often misunderstood chapters in the Bible. After teaching about spiritual gifts in chapter 12, the Apostle Paul reveals a “more excellent way”, a life marked not by power, knowledge, or sacrifice… but by love. This conversation will challenge how you define spiritual maturity. Is it your gifts? Your knowledge? Your service? Or is it something deeper? In this episode, we explore: • Why spiritual gifts without love are empty noise • How someone can be spiritually active but still spiritually immature • Why God cares more about your motive than your sacrifice • What biblical love (agapē) actually looks like in real life • How pride, envy, and self-centeredness destroy relationships • Why forgiveness is a mark of true maturity • The difference between love and tolerance • Why love is eternal but gifts are temporary • How love reveals whether you're growing or still spiritually immature • Why love is greater than faith and hope Key Truth: Gifts impress people. Knowledge informs people. Sacrifice inspires people. But love transforms people. This episode will help you: Examine your heart, not just your actions Grow in Christlike character Love people without conditions or hidden motives Understand what it really means to follow Jesus Scripture Focus: 1 Corinthians 13:1–13 If your faith feels active… but empty, this message is for you.

Welcome to The Daily, where we study the Bible verse by verse, chapter by chapter, every day. Our shout-out today goes to Ken McKinney from Ellaville, GA. Thanks for your partnership in Project23. We cannot do this without donors like you. Our text today is 1 Corinthians 13:13. So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love. — 1 Corinthians 13:13 Paul ends with a ranking. Faith. Hope. Love. All three remain. But one is greater in how it remains. Love. Why? Faith trusts what it cannot see. Hope longs for what has not yet arrived. Both belong to this present age. One day faith will become sight. Hope will become fulfillment. Love will not change. It will remain. Love does not graduate into something better. It does not expire when the age ends. Love reflects the eternal character of God. That is why it is greatest. It's the greatest remaining. Corinth was fighting over gifts that would pass away. Paul redirects them to what will remain forever. Anchor your life there. Not in visibility. Not in applause. Not in being right. Love. Truthful everlasting love. Spiritual maturity is measured by what will last. And love will last. DO THIS: Choose one unseen act of love this week—something that builds another person up without drawing attention to yourself. ASK THIS: If my gifts disappeared, would love still define me? Am I investing more in what impresses now—or what remains forever? PRAY THIS: Father, fix my heart on what is eternal. Teach me to pursue love above recognition and shape my life around what will never fade. Amen. PLAY THIS: "Here Is Love, Vast as the Ocean"

What if the most quoted love chapter in the Bible is actually a sharp rebuke to arrogant Christians? Summary 1 Corinthians 13 is not a wedding poem — it is a correction to spiritually gifted believers who were proud, divisive, and self-promoting. Paul dismantles the idea that gifting equals maturity and declares that without love, even the most impressive spirituality becomes nothing but noise. He defines love not as sentimental softness, but as crucified self-denial that refuses envy, arrogance, and selfish ambition. In the end, only love lasts — because love is the evidence that Christ is truly at work in you. Reflection & Small Group Discussion Questions Why do you think 1 Corinthians 13 is commonly read at weddings instead of understood in its original corrective context? According to 13:1–3, what does Paul mean when he says gifted believers without love are "nothing"? Where have you seen spiritual gifting used without love — in culture, church life, or your own life? How can truth be weaponized in a way that becomes "noise" instead of Christlike love? Which description of love in verses 4–7 challenges you the most personally — and why? What is the difference between biblical love and unconditional acceptance of sin? Before speaking boldly, what internal heart work should happen first? Why does Paul emphasize that gifts will pass away but love will remain? How does remembering that we "see in a mirror dimly" (v.12) shape humility in disagreement? This week, what is one relationship where you need to pursue patience, kindness, or repentance before pursuing influence?
