The Message of the first Letter to the Corinthians
Unity in Weakness as the Body of Christ is one of several devotional commentaries written by the author. This letter of Paul was written to a messed-up body of believers. They had many divisions over leadership, spiritual gifts, and sundry other things. It is recommended that the book be read section by section and works well as a daily devotional guide.

This book sees 1 Corinthians as a call to unity in our weaknesses. N. T. (Tom) Wright has influenced my writing greatly, especially his commentaries for everyman.
