The Leaven of Sin: Why a Holy God Demands a Holy Church
An excellent expository sermon on 1 Corinthians 5, correctly linking the Old Testament type of unleavened bread to the New Testament call for holiness in the church. The pastor rightly frames church discipline not as merely punitive but as a redemptive act for both the individual and the congregation. The robust ordination service preceding the sermon underscores the church's high view of Scripture and confessional standards.
