Developmentally Arrested 11/09/2025

Developmentally Arrested God’s design and desire for his people is spiritual growth and maturity. We learn here that the Corinthian Christians aren’t growing up. They are still spiritual babies.

No Divisions Among You 10/12/2025

No Divisions Among You Paul loves the Messy Church at Corinth because God loves the Messy Church at Corinth. It's because Paul loves the church that he won't leave them in their mess, but leads them forward to become all that God has declared them to be. And it doesn't take him long to jump write into one of the core issues plaguing the church. The church is divided. 📖 SCRIPTURE READING: 1 Corinthians 1:10-17 📝 Download the Message Notes: 🔊 Listen on Spotify: /episode/index/show/gracecentralcoast/id/38544560
