Welcome back!

Today, we’re tackling one of the most countercultural messages in Scripture: the call to willingly lay down our rights.

We live in a world where everything revolves around my freedom, my voice, my choice. But Paul turns that upside down in 1 Corinthians 9, showing us a deeper way. He had every right as an apostle to financial support, comfort, and recognition—yet he surrendered those rights for the sake of love and the advance of the gospel.

This isn’t weakness. This is Christlike strength. It’s the same pattern we see in Jesus, who gave up the glory of heaven to rescue us.

Episode Highlights:

  • Why the gospel calls us to lay down personal rights
  • Paul’s radical example of surrender in ministry
  • How Christ’s humility defines true Christian maturity
  • Why love must govern our freedoms
  • The eternal reward in giving up what you could claim now

📖 Key Verse:

“We did not use this right. On the contrary, we put up with anything rather than hinder the gospel of Christ.”
—1 Corinthians 9:12

Takeaway:
The mature Christian doesn’t ask, “What am I entitled to?” but “What can I give up so others can flourish?” That is the path to real unity, real joy, and eternal reward.
