Discussion Questions
1. In what ways does the need for intelligible speech, as described in 1 Corinthians, apply to our current worship practices?
2. Paul indicates that tongues serve as a sign for unbelievers, emphasizing judgment. How does this concept challenge or affirm your views on the practice of speaking in tongues in the church today?
3. How can the command to “pursue love” reshape the way we think about using our spiritual gifts? In what ways can love be prioritized over personal expressions of spiritual gifts in a church setting?
