About this episode
The episode discusses the complexities of resolving disputes within the church and the appropriateness of taking issues to public law courts.
Dear friends, 1 Corinthians 6 opens with a very challenging issue of disputes within the congregation. The Corinthians seem to have blown up these minor disputes into lawsuits against each other. This raises for us a plethora of issues about resolving disputes inside the church and when it is appropriate and right to take issues beyond the church into public law courts. I’m sure you will find this issue as complex as Peter and I discovered in our conversation. Yours, Phillip Freely available, supported by generosity.
