In a world marked by sudden violence, cultural upheaval, and relentless opposition to truth, believers are often left grappling with profound questions about God’s presence and sovereignty. The shocking assassination of Charlie Kirk at Utah Valley University has brought such questions into sharp focus. Charlie’s death, senseless and violent, exemplifies both the high stakes of faithful public witness and the cost of living uncompromisingly for Christ. This tragedy, when read alongside Paul’s exhortation in Ephesians 6, highlights the critical need for prayer, spiritual preparedness, and fearless proclamation of the gospel. While grief and even anger naturally arise in response to such events, the Scriptures provide a theological framework and practical guidance for responding to tragedy with faith, courage, and hope.

The contemporary church faces a fundamental crisis that undermines its essential nature and mission effectiveness. When believers import secular culture's ranking and comparison systems into the body of Christ, they violate the theological foundation of ecclesiastical unity established through the Holy Spirit's baptismal work. Pastor Mike Morris's exposition of 1 Corinthians 12:12-25 addresses this destructive mindset by returning to Scripture's teaching on the church's true nature and the spiritual reality that creates authentic Christian fellowship.
An examination of 1 Corinthians 12:13 reveals the true nature of baptism for believers today and challenges common assumptions about this fundamental Christian practice.
