• The changed condition of the Corinthian assembly after Paul’s first letter

In this episode, we continue our audiobook reading of A Short Introduction to the Epistles of Paul the Apostle by W. Kelly with the chapter on 1 Corinthians.

This chapter examines the circumstances of the Corinthian church and the reasons Paul wrote this epistle. Unlike Romans, which lays out doctrine in a systematic way, 1 Corinthians addresses serious practical and moral problems within a local assembly. Kelly explains how Paul applies Christian truth to real-life church issues while maintaining the authority of Christ and the unity of the body.

In this chapter, you will hear about:

• The condition of the church at Corinth and the challenges it faced

• Divisions, moral failure, and disorder within the assembly

• Paul’s teaching on Christian conduct, discipline, and spiritual gifts

• The balance between grace and holiness in church life

This reading is part of an ongoing audiobook series covering each of Paul’s epistles in order. More chapters will be released as the series continues.

In “The Cross and Christian Experience,” J. M. Davies brings his study to a deeply practical and devotional conclusion. After exploring the Cross from every doctrinal, prophetic, and cosmic angle, he now turns to its daily impact on the believer’s life—how the Cross is not merely a historical event, but a living, transforming power shaping Christian experience moment by moment.

Davies explains that the Cross marks the beginning of true Christian living. It is at the Cross that the believer finds forgiveness, peace, and acceptance—but also the call to discipleship, self-denial, and fellowship with Christ in suffering. The Cross is both the doorway to life and the pattern for life.

Todd Nicklas talks about the strengths and cautions when using devotionals. These tools should not be a replacement but an enhancement to our time in the Word.
