In today’s episode, we walk through 1 Corinthians 11, where Paul addresses disorder, dishonor, and confusion in the Corinthian church, especially in worship gatherings and during the Lord’s Supper. This chapter is often misunderstood, but when read in its cultural and biblical context, Paul’s heart becomes clear: God cares deeply about honor, order, and unity in His church.

We unpack Paul’s teaching on spiritual authority and headship, clarifying what it means, and what it does not mean, in light of Christ’s example. We also explore the cultural background behind head coverings, explaining why Paul focused on honor rather than external appearance, and why worship is a moment where heaven itself is paying attention.

The episode then shifts to Paul’s strong correction regarding the abuse of communion. What was meant to be a sacred proclamation of Christ’s sacrifice had become a selfish, divided, and irreverent gathering. Paul calls the church back to self-examination, unity, and reverence, not to shame believers, but to protect them.

This teaching challenges us to ask hard questions: Are we honoring God in our worship? Are we discerning the body of Christ? Are we approaching the Lord’s Table with humility and gratitude? Ultimately, this episode is a call to restore reverence, heal division, and worship God in spirit and in truth.
