Age-Appropriate Action | 1 Corinthians 13:11 Meditation
Spiritual gifts are for the present; love is everlasting. Paul tells the competitive Corinthians to act in “age-appropriate” ways.

About
In a nutshell, catching or “fishing” people for Christ (Lk 5:10) entails striving to win others to Jesus, that they also may become committed disciples of the One who died for them and was raised again (2 Cor 5:15). This ought to include both Christian doctrine and defense (apologetics).
