God's Order in a Confused Culture — Part 1
Pastor Eddie Eaton begins a two-part study of 1 Corinthians 11:2–16 on authority and worship. Paul teaches that Christian freedom remains under God’s authority, submission never implies inferiority, and men and women share equal value while serving in distinct, interdependent roles rooted in creation. Believers are called to place God’s Word above personal preference, surrender every area to Christ, and trust the Creator’s design.
Service note: This Sunday service concludes with the ordination of Lynwood Graham as a deacon. Lynwood’s salvation testimony appears immediately before the sermon.
