2 Corinthians 6:3-13 | A Wide Open Heart

A mark of Christian maturity is opening our heart and life to His instruction through His servants.

2 Corinthians 5:11-6:2 | Ambassadors for Christ

Representing Jesus faithfully and intentionally is God's call upon all of His children.

The evidence of God's power is on vivid display in the lives of His people -- who are weak, frail, jars of clay, and experience life-long afflictions...and yet, our perseverance in the faith proves that the power comes from God, not ourselves. Indeed, every affliction Christian's face is storing for us an eternal weight of glory far beyond comparison.

2 Corinthians 2:12-17 | Our Triumph in Christ

Paul provides an illustrative example on how to express concern (and perhaps even some level of anxiety) for the church at Corinth while remaining aware of and thankful for the provision of God in his life and His work to sanctify us. He then describes how to life a God-ward, Christ-centered life.

2 Corinthians 2:5-11 | The Hospital for Sinners

Forgiveness and restoration of repentant sinners is a hallmark of true Christianity. Local churches are to exercise such grace toward any who previously abandoned obedience to Christ, but have humbly returned to Him.
