In this message, Eric opens 2 Corinthians 12 and follows Paul into one of the most counterintuitive ideas in the New Testament: that weakness is not something to hide but something to lead with. Using Paul's mysterious "thorn in the flesh" and Jesus's response to it, "my grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness", Eric makes the case that boasting in weakness isn't false modesty or spiritual performance. It's the only posture that actually opens us up to receive what God has for us. The sermon invites everyone to get honest about the two words that unlock God's power: "I can't."
