What makes a faithful minister of the gospel? In 2 Corinthians 10:7–18, the apostle Paul challenges the Corinthians—and us—not to measure leaders by talent, charisma, or comparisons, but by their faithfulness to Christ. In this message, we explore the faulty measuring sticks we often use, the true marks of a good minister, and how every believer is called to live as a servant of Christ.

Listen in and be encouraged to boast only in the Lord, who builds His church through weak but willing servants.

In a world filled with distractions and uncertainty, Joshua 23 reminds us of the importance of staying spiritually awake. It’s a call to resist complacency, to stand firm in truth, and to keep our hearts anchored in hope. Rather than living in fear, we are urged to remain alert so that we can faithfully follow Christ and be ready for the opportunities He sets before us.

The gospel changes the way we use power. We use it to bring glory and honor to Christ, not to ourselves.

1. The gospel frees you to live with otherworldly gentleness (1–2).
2. The gospel empowers you with otherworldly strength (3–4b).
3. The gospel compels you to total obedience (4c–6).
