Continuing with our study of First Corinthians, Reverend Brown takes a look at First Corinthians 12:1-13. Here John in his letters asks of the members of the church in Corinth, are you using your gifts for yourself and your needs or are you using them for the "Common Good" in your church. When our gifts seem to go unnoticed do, we find ways to grow them within our church or do we become frustrated and just move along to another church?
If we treat our spiritual life as a shopping trip are we just mixing and matching what ever we might find for our good, rather then listening to the call for the common good. Todays sermon asks of us can we strive for developing and expanding the body of Christ and the common good of the church, rather then looking for personal satisfaction and reward.

With this Sunday being First Baptists Men's Day, the tradition is to have a Guest Speaker come and address the men. This year we were honored to have Rev. Taurus King Scurlock from Mt. Zion Missionary Baptist Church in Evanston Illinois. Using Acts 10:1-3 as the bases of his sermon, Rev. Scurlock asks, "In a world full of Baby Daddies, Pimp Daddies, and Sugar Daddies do you have what it takes to be a Church Daddy". Rather than taking what seems to have become the socially acceptable behavior can you be a God fearing, regular praying Church Daddy.

Reverend Brown continues with his discussion of Paul's First letter to the church in Corinth. Here in
First Corinthians 8:1-13 Paul addresses the issue of how christians can deal with their individuality while still participating in the body of Christ. In a conflict between Christians involving personal freedom, the Christian is obligated in the Lord to surrender his freedom for the sake of his Christian brother or sister. |

Rev. Brown asks us if we have the courage for the challenge that God has given us. Based on the text of Corinthians he asks if we have what it takes to be Christians rather then just giving in to the old adage, "I just Can't Help Myself".
