Paul boasted in his weakness. When we boast in our weakness, God’s power and glory is put on display and we live full of purpose.
Fight on Purpose
October 13, 2024 • Brad Cooper
We are in a real battle with a real enemy. To live on purpose for God we must understand how to use our spiritual weapons of war.
Cheerfully Give on Purpose
October 6, 2024 • Dan Lian
Generosity is an act of grace. We can learn to excel in this act of grace just as we excel in faith, in speech, in knowledge, in diligence, and in love. How can we steward our resources for God's purpose?
We can point to God in our victories, but the glory of God is also put on display when we turn to him and repent of our sin. Godly grief produces repentance that leads to salvation without regret, while worldly grief produces death. To be on purpose for God, we must repent.
Today I Decide
September 15, 2024 • Clayton King
Today is the Day of salvation. Paul challenges the church not to receive the grace of God in vain. No matter what obstacles we face, we can walk Today in God’s salvation.
Stand in the Middle
September 8, 2024 • Hykeng Paul
Because of Jesus, you are now a new creation. Your old life is gone. A new life has come. Because we are reconciled to God through Christ, God has purposed us to be ministers of reconciliation.
Treasure in Jars of Clay
September 1, 2024 • Dan Lian
God has shone in our hearts to give light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. Paul says that this immeasurable treasure resides in us, mere “jars of clay,” to show that this gift is about God and not us.
Spirit-Fueled Purpose
August 25, 2024 • Meredith Knox
The Holy Spirit empowers each of us to walk every day in the freedom and purpose of Christ. We can be confident in our purpose, not because of our own work, but because the Spirit of God works through us to make us more like Jesus every day.
The Aroma of Christ
August 18, 2024 • Lee McDerment
We are commissioned by God to share our story and to be the fragrance of life to a dying world. For those who have eyes to see it, the difficulties of life reflect the Gospel. Our purpose is to spread the fragrance of life so others see the hope of resurrection!
The Promise of Purpose
August 11, 2024 • Brad Cooper
Our purpose is to glorify God! God promised to use every detail of our life— both good and bad— for his glory and our ultimate good. Every promise is “Yes and Amen!” through Jesus Christ.
From Pain to Purpose
August 4, 2024 • Davey Blackburn
Second Corinthians says we are part of God’s story. God uses every detail of our lives— painful and pleasant, planned and unplanned— for his glory and our ultimate good. We are ambassadors of that glory— we carry the light of Jesus as an offering to God and a testimony to the world. Our pain, our success, our marriage, our singleness, our career, our finances, our parenting, our legacy… all on purpose for God.
