Today we join Phil Moore as he introduces us to 1 and 2 Corinthians: STRAIGHT TO THE HEART OF 1 & 2 CORINTHIANS INTRODUCTION: THE KIND OF CHURCH GOD CAN USE “To the church of God in Corinth, to those sanctified in Christ Jesus and called to be holy.” (1 Corinthians 1:2) If you think that 1 and 2 Corinthians are somebody else’s mail, then you need to think again.
