From The Bible Effect

RELATED SCRIPTURE

Understanding the context of Paul’s complicated relationship with the Corinthians, and the Greco-Roman cultural practices that had permeated the church, help us to better evaluate our own lives as followers of Jesus in our world today. In Part 1 of this two-part series, you will learn what the culture was like in first century Corinth before their first contact with the Gospel message through the Apostle Paul. You will also see how Paul established a thriving church in this city during his 18-month stay. In this video we cover everything until Paul departs this city. In Part 2 of our series, we look at all of Paul’s interactions with the church after he left, which led to the writing of both 1 & 2 Corinthians.
