Apostle's Advice (1 Corinthians 7)
In this episode of Tough Text, Daniel Price and Scott Keith tackle Paul's challenging words in 1 Corinthians 7, where he seems to praise singleness over marriage and family life. They explain that Paul's counsel is tied to his unique calling as an evangelist, the realities of persecution, and the urgent expectation of Christ's return—not a universal command against marriage. The discussion explores vocation, celibacy, missionary work, and why Paul's advice should not be used to justify modern avoidance of marriage, while affirming both faithful family life and dedicated single service in the church.
