Paul opens up this glorious letter with wondrous thoughts about Jesus, His Gospel—and also the disastrous implications of earthly unbelief.

As Paul concludes his fourth(!) letter to the Corinthians, he gives us insight into proper church discipline, the power of Jesus' life within us, our call, and the Holy Spirit's presence in our midst.

A visit to the "Third Heaven," plus more of the push and pull between Paul and the Corinthian fellowship.

The drama of the Bridegroom and the Bride; the realities of the Gospel; and a thought on the costliness of Paul's pursuit of the Way.

The miracle of watching Jesus' life overtaking Paul's, and getting to hear the sort of "warfare" he was engaged in...

The second half of Paul's treatise on giving and generosity, including some marvelous opportunities for "sharing our life," and generosity, with Jesus Himself.

Paul talks about the giving and generosity that sets apart the Macedonian churches - and invites the Corinthians further into it.

The invitation of His intimate promises and the promise of His "perfecting" and "consecration" of us. What a good God!

His restoration of Eden's "co-operation" and our opportunity to "use" the grace of God. Plus, possessing "everything worth having" right now.

As we live in the midst of the "George Floyd-Black Lives Matter" cultural-historical movement that is presently happening, I want us to lock eyes with Jesus and ask: What are you doing? and What should I be doing?
