Life among Christians can be great. But lets face it- it can also be exasperating! The joys of fellowship too often give way to division and debate-arguments over such things as the correct form of worship and the place of charismatic gifts. In 1 Corinthians we see Christianity not as it was meant to be but as it often is. Yet we also find practical advice for overcoming the challenges of life together.
