Do you find yourself more likely to engage in conflict in order to pursue justice or to avoid conflict in order to protect yourself? Here we find that Paul shows us a third way. He spares the Corinthians justice, and yet he engages with them in a way that brings him a lot of pain in the hopes that God would use it to bring them to the joy that can only be found in repentance. Where did Paul learn this sort of love, and what gave him the courage to walk it out?
