When I Run Out of My Strength

Series:
Passage: 2 Corinthians 12:1-10; 2 Corinthians 11:30; 1 John 1:14
Service Type:

It is when I run out of my strength that God shows up. In this sixth and final of the series on 2 Corinthians, Pastor Chris shares a beautiful treatment by the late theologian Marva Dawn on a pivotal passage in chapter 12.

We took a close look at some of the Greek text, but the main focus was on another, refreshing possibility of a translation that puts even more emphasis on God’s power showing up in our lives. And here’s a hint: weakness is the very place that Jesus tabernacles. We also talked about weakness being the way forward for Christians especially in a time of contentious politics and potential societal unrest.
