Dysfunctional Church
Dysfunctional Church
Scripture: 1 Corinthians 1:10-25
This week we started a new teaching series on 1 Corinthians, focusing on the early chapters where Paul confronts the dysfunction in the Corinthian church. The main idea is that “Dysfunction dies where Gospel unity lives.” Corinth was a booming, diverse, and influential city, but the young church Paul planted there had quickly become divided, proud, and spiritually immature. Paul addresses the first major issue — division — because a fractured church cannot fulfill its mission. Unit, Paul teachers, is not about uniformity or ignoring truth, but about rallying around the gospel above all else. The sermon emphasizes that many modern church divisions arise from pride and misplaced identity rather than core gospel truth.
