Today we begin a new book of the Bible: “first Corinthians”–the first of two letters that Paul writes to the Christian congregation in Corinth, Greece. This congregation is full of new Christians. Paul highlights the strengths of the congregation, strengths God extends to all believers by His grace. We rejoice in our relationship to God: He has called us and sanctified us, and He will sustain us. • We hear Your call, heavenly Father, in the Gospel of Your Son. Keep us to the end. Amen.
