Expository Studies in First Corinthians

by Ray C. Stedman

This series consists of 39 sermons on Paul's First Letter to the Corinthians (Discovery Papers #3571-3609). These messages were preached at Peninsula Bible Church in Palo Alto, California, by Ray C. Stedman, in 1978-79. Ray once called these great Pauline epistles "The Letters to the Californians" because moral conditions and church factions in Twentieth Century California seem to be very much like the situation in Corinth in the First Century. The messages (below) are available in HTML or Acrobat PDF format.
