Sermon Notes:
1. Just like everyone else 1 Cor 1:1-9
The most extraordinary of letters
The most ordinary of beginnings
Meet the Corinthians:
1. A church who saw each-other as winners and losers
2. …Who loved the things that made them feel like winners
3. …Who hated the things that made them feel like losers
A christian life focused on the future
Paul and his cross-shaped example
Which explains why Paul begins with:
1. You’re just like everyone else… v1-3
2. Everything that makes you special was a gift… v4-7a
3. And you got it all for a reason. v7b-9 Lessons for an ordinary church?
