(11 sessions) In this Book, Paul opens his heart to the congregation in Corinth. The forthright tone he used in 1 Corinthians melts into meekness and gentleness in 2 Corinthians. Through Paul's suffering, foolishness, and weakness, he imparts divine power, wisdom, and strength to the congregation. He encourages their gracious giving, and warns them against super-apostles, who would lead them away from Christ. In 2 Corinthians readers learn more about - the reasons for Paul's delayed visit to Corinth - the wondrous glory of the new covenant - the apostolic ministry of reconciling sinners to a gracious God - how God's power is perfected in our weakness.
