In week 2 of our Just Jesus series, we continue through John chapter 1 and discuss how John pointed to the light by introducing a king who would reign forever. 

What if the resurrection of Jesus was more than just history—what if it was your hope for today?In this message, Pastor Tommy continues our journey through 1 Corinthians 15, exploring the implications of Christ's resurrection for our daily lives. Paul reminds us that the resurrection is not just a doctrinal truth—it's a powerful hope that anchors us beyond the limits of this life. Discover how this foundational reality shapes our endurance, empowers our obedience, and secures our victory over sin and death.

In this powerful message from A City of Light, Pastor Tommy Orlando walks us deeper into 1 Corinthians 15, where Paul confronts a false teaching that denied the physical resurrection of Jesus—and therefore, the future resurrection hope of believers.With personal testimony and scriptural depth, Pastor Tommy reminds us that Christ's resurrection is not just an abstract doctrine—it's the cornerstone of our forgiveness, our future, and our freedom.

In this powerful new chapter of our A City of Light series, Pastor Tommy brings us to the foundational truth of our faith—the Gospel of Jesus Christ. After chapters of pastoral correction and instruction for church life, Paul shifts the focus in 1 Corinthians 15 to the message that makes it all possible: Christ died for our sins, was buried, and rose again.

As we continue our City of Light series through 1 Corinthians, we arrive at the second half of chapter 13, the famous "love chapter." But this passage isn't just poetic language for weddings—Paul is delivering a powerful correction to a gifted, divided church. He reminds them (and us) that love is not just a virtue; it's the necessary context for all spiritual gifts.In this message, we explore:The timeless primacy of love in Christian communityThe debate over spiritual gifts—have they ceased or do they continue?Why “the perfect” Paul speaks of refers not to the Bible's completion, but to Christ's returnThe stunning truth that we are already fully known and fully loved by GodHow that love liberates us, humbles us, and fortifies us for anything life throws our way

“Once you were not a people, but now you are God's people.” This declaration from 1st Peter helps us to understand the transformation from being lost to now being a part of God's kingdom. Pastor John Munro explores how this new identity in Christ reshapes everything. Discover what it means to be God's treasured possession in a world desperately searching for belonging and purpose.

What does it mean to be part of God's house? Pastor John Munro explores the powerful picture from 1 Peter where Christ is described as the living cornerstone. Discover the three unique privileges that come with your spiritual identity in Christ and how they transform your daily life.

We're continuing our series through 1 Corinthians by arriving at perhaps the most well-known passage in the letter: 1 Corinthians 13—often quoted at weddings, yet rarely understood in its original context.This isn't about romantic love. Paul isn't writing to a bride and groom. He's writing to a divided, gifted, self-focused church—a church a lot like ours. And in the midst of arguments over spiritual gifts, personal rights, and who's more important, Paul offers a radical correction: the greatest gift isn't prophecy, tongues, or faith—it's love.In this message, we unpack:The communal context of 1 Corinthians 13Why love is the essential foundation for every spiritual giftA deep dive into each attribute of biblical love—and how it challenges our modern assumptionsHow this love cannot be manufactured by effort but must be received from Christ and expressed through His Spirit

In this message from our City of Light series through 1 Corinthians, we continue exploring Paul's vision for a Spirit-empowered, unified, and selfless community of faith. In a world plagued by self-promotion and isolation, Paul calls the Church to something radically different: a body where every part matters, every gift is valued, and every believer belongs.Whether it's the more “spectacular” spiritual gifts or the quieter gifts of helping, guiding, or encouraging—each one is indispensable. And when we honor one another's gifts, we defeat division, grow in empathy, and become the kind of Church that truly shines in a dark world.

Discover how the Church shines as a radiant body through the Spirit-given gifts of its members.In this sermon, we explore 1 Corinthians 12, where Paul reveals God's vision for a unified yet diverse community. Learn how your unique gifts matter—not just for your personal growth, but for building up the body of Christ. Whether you feel overlooked or overburdened, this message reminds us that every part of the body is indispensable.

In this message from our ongoing series A City of Light: A Study in 1 Corinthians, we return to a powerful and often misunderstood passage—Paul's teaching on the Lord's Supper in 1 Corinthians 11. Too often, these verses are isolated and stripped from their greater context, missing Paul's rebuke of a fractured, self-focused church and his call to radical, Christ-like community.What does it mean to “eat and drink in an unworthy manner”? Why is disunity such a dangerous threat to the Church? And how is true communion not just about remembering Christ individually, but embodying His sacrificial love together as His body?This sermon calls us to recover the depth and gravity of the Lord's Supper—not just as a personal reflection, but as a community-defining act. We'll explore:Why division in the church undermines our witness to the worldHow the Lord's Supper is meant to form a family, not just individual believersWhat it truly means to “discern the body” and care for one another in humility and unityHow the broken body and shed blood of Jesus call us to a life of shared responsibility and sacrificial loveIf you've ever felt disconnected from the church or struggled to see how communion shapes Christian community, this message will challenge and encourage you to reclaim the power of the table—and the people around it.

1 Corinthians 10:13-33After Easter, we return to 1 Corinthians, where Paul calls the church to resist idolatry and live in light of their identity in Christ. In a culture filled with competing allegiances, we are reminded: there is no neutral ground—our lives either reflect the One who redeemed us or align with the enemy.

If a dragon is what they must fight, the a dragon they will fight! This may be the last thing the Bitter Hearts ever do. But dammit, will they get it done! Also does anyone else think they shouldn't have let that guy live? Like I know they're not evil, but he certainly is. I hope it doesn't come back to bite them. Oh well, bigger fish to fry!

In Pastor Tommy's sermon today we explore 1 Corinthians 3:16-23 and Paul's powerful call to unity in the body of Christ. In a world that breeds division and self-centered wisdom, Paul reminds us that *we*—collectively—are God's temple, where His Spirit dwells. This truth is spiritually regulating, calling us away from immaturity and individualism toward a Christ-centered identity that unites us in faith, purpose, and mission. True wisdom is found not in the fleeting philosophies of the age but in the power of Christ's cross. As we embrace our shared identity in Him, we move toward spiritual maturity, deeper community, and a life shaped by sacrificial love.

Join us as we continue our City of Light series, exploring the challenges and calling of the church in a culture much like Corinth—prosperous, diverse, and consumed by self-gratification. In this message, we dive into 1 Corinthians 3, where Paul addresses spiritual immaturity, selfishness, and the critical importance of building on the true foundation: Jesus Christ. We'll uncover how the message, mission, and methods of the church must center on Christ, ensuring that our ministry withstands the test of time and glorifies Him alone. Let's learn together what it means to shine brightly in a dark world.

There aren't many darker places to be than in a city occupied by an enemy during a brutal war, living without freedom, in constant fear, and with little or no recourse to justice. For a crime to be able to shock even people living under those conditions, it has to be something truly terrifying, and that is what the people in Paris during World War II experienced when a series of gruesome murders were uncovered. Join us for part 1 of the disturbing story of serial killer Dr. Marcel Petiot. Sources:Death In the City of Light by David KingFollow us, campers!Patreon (join to get all episodes ad-free, at least a day early, an extra episode a month, and a free sticker!): https://patreon.com/TrueCrimeCampfirehttps://www.truecrimecampfirepod.com/Facebook: True Crime CampfireInstagram: https://gramha.net/profile/truecrimecampfire/19093397079Twitter: @TCCampfire https://twitter.com/TCCampfireEmail: truecrimecampfirepod@gmail.comMERCH! https://true-crime-campfire.myspreadshop.com
