One: Faithful to the End - Chris Dillon, Lead Pastor 06 28 26

Because Christ has conquered death, our labor in the Lord is never in vain (1 Cor. 15:58). In chapter 16, Paul shows what that resurrection-shaped life looks like in practice: living generously, working together for the advance of the gospel, recognizing and walking through open doors, persevering through opposition, and honoring faithful servants. Rather than treating ministry as the work of a few, Paul calls every believer to participate in God’s mission. His final exhortation reminds us to stand firm in the faith, be courageous, remain strong, and let everything we do be done in love. As we wait for Christ’s return, we excel in the Lord’s work by living generous and courageous lives.
