We wrap up the book of 1 Corinthians by exploring the context in which it is written and its importance in understanding early Christianity. We linger for a moment on 1 Corinthians 13 – the love chapter and then wrap up with a reflection on the elements of the gospel which Paul emphasizes in this book, with particular attention to 1 Corinthians 15:1-10.
