    A sermon about allowing Christ to transform our weaknesses into strength.

    “When I Am Weak” 2 Corinthians 12:2-10 It’s the most dreaded question of a job interview, and when it comes, many of us can hardly push the words out of our mouths. “Tell me,” the interviewer asks, “what’s your greatest weakness?” How do we answer that question? I hate that question, how ...read more

    Is there purpose in my pain? Does God care when I hurt? By examining the life of the Apostle Paul, we can gain an eternal perspective of why God allows us to be broken by the trials of this life.

    “I know a man in Christ who fourteen years ago was caught up to the third heaven—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows. And I know that this man was caught up into paradise—whether in the body or out of the body I do not know, God knows— and he heard things that cannot be ...read more

    This statement of the Apostle Paul, “For when I am weak, then I am strong” is confusing and difficult for many to accept. Paul was not anti-power or wanted us to be weak. He was a very strong man in many aspects of his life. What did he really mean?

    Sometimes God says no. When you are weakened by His answer, He will strengthen you by His grace.

    The late Chuck Colson of Watergate fame shared his experience when God said NO. The great paradox [of my life] is that every time I walk into a prison and see the faces of men or women who have been transformed by the power of the living God, I realize that the thing God has chosen to use in my ...read more

    This is Part 14 in a 14-part series of studies I call “The Christian Character” in the “Sermon on the Mount.” This part deals with Jesus' assurance - Ask, seek, and knock; the narrow gate; false prophets; and building on the rock.

     | 14,310 views

    In this vision Paul is caught up to heaven & received communications & revelations that he can not make known (CIT). This was to him, & to all who believed his word, a more reliable evidence of the favor of God upon an apostle than anything prior

    2 CORINTHIANS 12: 1-6 [GAINING PERSPECTIVE Series] A JOURNEY TO PARADISE Paul now moves to the account of a remarkable spiritual experience which was granted him as an apostle by the Lord. He was reticent to write about this experience but has been forced to substantiate his apostleship. ...read more

    Paul really tries to get his readers to understand that there is a danger of thinking too much of ourselves

    I’m not sure who said this but it really says a lot. "My God, I have never thanked Thee for my thorn. I have thanked Thee a thousand times for my roses, but not once for my thorn. I have been looking forward to a world where I shall get compensation for my cross; but I have never thought of ...read more

    Like a splinter barely under our skin, circumstances can be painful. But how can we tell if it's just life or God?

    Have you ever got a splinter in your finger or your foot? It sticks out just enough to be irritating but not far enough to pull it out. Every time you brush against something, it sends pain through out your body. I know when this happens to me I try to ignore it. I hope against hope that some how ...read more

    When God chooses to answer our prayer, He does so for His glory not to make our lives more comfortable. When we receive an answer to prayer it is not so we can live our lives independent of His will, but so that we will be fulfilled in the center of His

    In our weakness we can always count on God to be our strength.

    Strength in Weakness There is a chorus we used to sing as kids that goes like this: - “My God is so great, so strong and so mighty, there's nothing my God cannot do.” You are probably familiar with it. Of course when we sing it, do we really pay attention to the meaning of the words. ...read more
