"Though carried in busted containers, Jesus' Gospel is true treasure."

2 Corinthians 4:7-18 by Michael Lockstampfor (@miklocks)

SUMMARY

This sermon explores the concept of the gospel as treasure carried in clay jars, based on 2 Corinthians 4. Pastor Michael emphasizes that our weaknesses and brokenness allow Christ's light to shine through, and that the resurrection life of Jesus is manifested in believers despite suffering. The eternal weight of glory far outweighs our present light afflictions.

REFLECTION & DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

• 💬 What weakness & struggle are we hiding? What light could Jesus shine through it?
