Paul wields his authority in 1 Corinthians, but in a way that isn’t very familiar to us today. We struggle with authority, but Paul teaches us the better way of authority founded on the gospel.

1. Do you tend to reject authority or embrace it?
2. What is compelling about Paul’s vision of authority as loving, worth imitating, and determined?
3. How does the gospel free us to pursue this better way of authority?
