Scripture: 1 Corinthians 11:17-34
Wayne Stiles teaches from 1 Corinthians 11:17-34 why Communion (the Lord’s Supper) is essential for us. Communion requires us to look backward—at Jesus’ death for our sins. It requires us to look forward—to Jesus’ coming for believers. It requires us to look inward—at our present walk with Jesus.
Scripture: 1 Peter 3:21, with supporting references from Matthew 28:19-20, Acts 16:30-33, Romans 6:3, and Acts 2:38
Wayne Stiles teaches what the Bible says about the ripple effect of baptism in your life. What does baptism really mean biblically? The Great Commission means more than getting wet, but it also means we are developing ourselves spiritually—and also developing others.
Scripture: Leviticus 26-27
Wayne Stiles teaches from Leviticus 26-27 that God’s surprising approach to helping us grow involves giving us His Word and His promise to bless obedience. When we blow it, God’s discipline motivates repentance—so that He may bless His people once again. Ultimately, our security is tied to the certainty of God’s promises.
