Featuring: Pastor Lucas Miles
In this message covering 1 Corinthians 7:17 through chapter 8, Pastor Lucas Miles helps believers navigate questions of calling, freedom, and Christian responsibility in a complex world. Paul’s instruction to “remain in the situation in which you were called” becomes a powerful call to reject legalism, societal pressure, and performance-based identity.
Pastor Lucas tackles topics like circumcision, marriage, singleness, slavery, and cultural controversies with biblical clarity and pastoral wisdom. He also transitions into chapter 8, where Paul addresses the issue of food sacrificed to idols—revealing how true Christian maturity is marked not just by knowledge, but by love. Whether you're navigating personal freedom, social pressure, or modern ethical questions, this episode will equip you with a gospel-centered lens for daily life.
