Rev. John Shank, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Edwardsville, IL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study 1 Corinthians 7:1-16.
The Corinthian Christians did not have a healthy understanding of sexuality. God calls Christians to self-control, while the world urges people to give in to every desire. It’s no wonder then that at least some in Corinth thought it would be best to avoid sexual activity all together. St. Paul urges them to embrace a better understanding: reserve sexual activity for marriage, as God designed. In this episode, Pastors Booe and Shank reflect on the Apostles’ teaching and how similar Corinth was to our world today.
