Episode 68: In a fight, keep your guard tight.
Jan 8, 2026 • Jeff Struecker
In this message, Pastor Jeff walks the church through Paul’s closing words in 1 Corinthians 16:13–14. These verses serve as a clear call to God’s people to stay spiritually alert, stand firm in the faith, and live with courage and strength in a challenging world. The Christian life is not lived casually; it requires intentional faith, steady conviction, and a readiness to follow Christ no matter the cost.
At the same time, Paul reminds the church that everything we do must be rooted in love. Strength without love can damage, and love without truth can drift. This sermon calls the church to reflect Christ by holding both together—being steadfast in faith while allowing love to guide our actions, relationships, and witness to the world.
