Title:  Fragrant Knowledge
Scripture:  2 Corinthians 2:12-17

Description:  How does the knowledge of God spread throughout the world? It's not a question we would normally ask, but it's crucial for understanding our calling. Paul shows us we've got to recognize the difference between God's responsibility and ours.

Speaker:  Matt McCullough
Title:  Godly Sincerity
Scripture:  2 Corinthians 1:12-22

Description:  One of the main reasons Paul wrote this letter was to defend his own sincerity against people who thought he was speaking from both sides of his mouth. And sincerity is certainly worth defending. You want to know that someone means what he says, that he's not holding anything back, and that you can trust him to follow through. But sincerity is easier to require from someone else than to produce consistently in ourselves. Paul explains how the grace of God is the only sure path to the sincere lives we want.

Title:  Afflicted Comforters
Scripture:  2 Corinthians 1:3-11

Description:  Paul describes a community where, though everyone experiences suffering, everyone is comforted and everyone is responsible for comforting others. He helps us learn to see our suffering for what God is doing in us and what he will do through us.
