The church at Corinth gives us a glimpse into how the Kingdom landed and found shape in a rather typical First Century Roman city. There was nothing exceptional about the Corinthian church: just believers trying to learn how to walk out of familiar kingdoms of darkness and walk into the Kingdom of Light.

1 Corinthians 14:1-25
Message Questions:
- Recall a habit you has as a child that you no longer have now. Do you remember when or how it stopped?
- What are the marks of adulthood mentioned in the passage? What behaviours is Paul urging believers into and what childish behaviours is he moving us away from?
- What experience do you have with the gift of tongues? What is your experience with the gift of prophecy? Why would God give those two gifts to the church?
- Do you “eagerly desire gifts of the Spirit?” What does, or would, that look like in your life?
- “God is really among you!” is something we desire at SPL. Is there something we can do to make this happen or is it 100% God’s doing?
