The Better Power

Nearly one-fourth of the world, 2 billion people, has little to no access to the gospel. What could one church in Greenville possibly do against such an insurmountable task? We’re seemingly powerless. Maybe we could come up with a better plan, something better than sending a few missionaries to preach about a crucified Messiah. As Paul opens his first letter to the church in Corinth, he addresses a problem of division. In doing so, he teaches us something about power. It’s the power we need if we are to have any hope for seeing the Riau Melayu, or anyone for that matter, rejoice in Christ. It’s a power that looks awfully foolish, but it's a better power than we can possibly imagine. Listen as Paul teaches us to how to be a powerful church from 1 Corinthians 1:18-2:5.
