You Are Here

“Only, as the Lord has assigned to each one, as God has called each, in this manner let him walk.  And so I direct in all the churches.” (1 Corinthians 7:17)

            We often think that if our circumstances changed, we would begin to serve the Lord better.  There is a tendency to blame our environment for our faithfulness, yet typically, that is not the leading factor.  God called you here, and here is your assigned position – your assignment.  Be faithful here instead of imagining how faithful you would be if you were somewhere else.

Matthew 4:4 #Biblebites

Today’s Reading: 1 Corinthians 7:10-20

Questions to ask:

1. How is Paul feeling as he writes today’s passage? What is his mood?
2. What are the central themes in Paul’s preaching and teaching which are being emphasized, or how are the central themes in this epistle being emphasized in today’s reading?
3. How does our reading show Paul’s people skills, especially how he handles conflict?
4. What in this passage would change the lives of the believer(s) being addressed? How does it make me a better disciple?
5. How does this show the “good news” of the gospel? How can I share that with someone else?

This year, #Biblebites are following the life and writings of Paul.  If you would like a copy of the reading schedule, you can view it here: https://eastlandchristians.org/news-events/2023-vision
