The church at Corinth was hardly a model church. Preoccupied with all sorts of matters that led these early Christians astray, it is easy to see why Paul is matter-of-fact, rebuking and correcting them in his letter. However, the church at Corinth was God's church, and that, as Paul reminds the Corinthians, is why it matters to God very much indeed.

In these studies on 1 Corinthians 1-7, we will learn to see church the way that God sees church, and why, therefore, church matters.

About Pathway Bible Guides
This Bible study resource is part of our series of Pathway Bible Guides. This series aims to provide simple, straightforward Bible study material for:

» Christians who are new to studying the Bible (perhaps because they've been recently converted or because they have joined a Bible study group for the first time)
» Christians who find other studies (such as the Interactive Bible Studies) too much of a stretch
» groups with limited time for study.

Accordingly, we've designed the studies to be short, straightforward and easy to use, with an uncomplicated vocabulary. At the same time, we've tried to do justice to the passages being studied, and to model good Bible-reading principles. We've tried to be simple without being simplistic; no-nonsense without being no-content.

The questions and answers assume a small group context, but can be easily adapted to suit different situations, such as individual study and one-to-one.
