In this passage, Paul reminds us just how serious a thing it is to dwell among immortals and seek to point them to Jesus. But who is sufficient for such a massive calling?

Planting the Seeds of the Gospel in Fields of Rejection Mar 08, 2025

Show notes

One of the things that makes sharing the Gospel so difficult is the prospect of being rejected. Often, we spend a lot of energy trying to discern if people are ready to hear the Gospel or if they will be offended by it or if they are going to shut us down. We love sharing the Gospel with people who want to hear it, but we don’t see much good in sharing the Gospel with people who don’t seem very open. In this passage, Paul shows us that we are to share the Gospel without being controlled by how people respond. You see, the seeds of the Gospel were always intended to be planted in fields of rejection.

The Gospel and Our Broken Plans Mar 01, 2025

Show notes

Have you ever felt called to do something good for the glory of God only to find that something came up and ruined your plans? Why? Why does God allow the good plans that we have to fall through? In this message, we will consider how God wants us to respond when we find ourselves standing in the rubble of our broken plans.

The Vulnerability of the Apostle Paul Feb 22, 2025

Show notes

Paul was more like you and I then we might think. In 2 Corinthians we see that Paul was overwhelmed, he struggled with despair, he experienced fear and anxiety and there was even a time where these things kept him from preaching the Gospel. Paul was a lot like us. And yet he was also different. What made Paul different was the way that he honestly shared his weaknesses and was not afraid to talk about his struggles. In this passage we will see how the Gospel sets us free to be honest, even about the things we are ashamed of.

The Difficulty of Forgiveness Feb 15, 2025

Show notes

Forgiveness is hard, even when the person who hurts you repents. In fact, often it isn’t until they repent, that we begin to realize that we are not quite ready to forgive them yet. Sometimes sorry just doesn’t seem like enough. In this message we will see how Paul calls us to respond when it doesn’t feel like sorry is enough.

Dealing with Conflict Part 2 Feb 08, 2025

Show notes

Do you find yourself more likely to engage in conflict in order to pursue justice or to avoid conflict in order to protect yourself? Here we find that Paul shows us a third way. He spares the Corinthians justice, and yet he engages with them in a way that brings him a lot of pain in the hopes that God would use it to bring them to the joy that can only be found in repentance. Where did Paul learn this sort of love, and what gave him the courage to walk it out?

Dealing with Conflict Part I Feb 01, 2025

Show notes

Conflict has been the source of some of our deepest wounds. So how are we supposed to respond to the people who have hurt us? Is there a way to engage in conflict that doesn’t end up rupturing our relationships and leaving us to lick our wounds alone? In 2 Corinthians Paul is going to model for us how to engage in healthy conflict with people who have hurt us. In this passage he will teach us about the danger of judging motives and arguing with people in our minds. In its place, Paul will call us to look for ways to spare our opponents and work with them for their joy instead of grasping for control in order to get justice
