“For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God” (1 Corinthians 1:18)
What do you get when you combine Las Vegas, Vancouver, and Hong Kong into one place? The city of Corinth! 1 Corinthians is such a wild book in a lot of ways, full of so many different issues: it’s got sex and scandal, lawsuits, arguments, infighting, philosophy, human wisdom, paganism, and much more. And in the middle of all that is what Paul calls his “foolish” message of the cross.
