In Healthy Living in a Sick World, Dr. Michael Youssef boldly walks through 1 Corinthians to expose how the spiritual sickness infecting the church in ancient Corinth mirrors the moral confusion of our modern culture. This 21-part series confronts cultural compromise, spiritual apathy, and doctrinal distortion with the unchanging truth of God’s Word. From divisive pride to sexual immorality, from false teaching to financial idolatry, the Apostle Paul offers God’s antidote—holy living rooted in the resurrection power of Christ. Each episode calls believers to reject the lies of this age, return to sound doctrine, and stand firm in Gospel truth with urgency, courage, and uncompromising faith.

In Part 12 of Healthy Living in a Sick World, Dr. Michael Youssef draws a bold line between the world’s definition of social justice and the Lord’s. Preaching from 1 Corinthians 9, he exposes how modern systems of forced redistribution stand in direct opposition to Christ-centered stewardship. Biblical justice begins with surrender—recognizing that God owns everything and we are merely stewards. Paul exhorts believers to support gospel work not out of guilt, but out of love for the One who gave all. Life itself is a stewardship, and the Christian must run the race with purpose, sacrifice, and self-control. The crown of eternal reward is for those who persevere with eyes fixed on Jesus—faithful to His Word, relentless in His mission.
