Episode 309: Comfort in Affliction - Power Paradox

Today we start our new worship series, Power Paradox. We are looking at 6 paradoxes in 2 Corinthians. A paradox is "a logically self-contradictory statement or a statement that runs contrary to expectations." To follow God and to live as God commands will stand in contrast to our world. The same was true back in Paul's days and especially in the very rich city of Corinth. Join us as we look at these paradoxes and explore what they meant in Paul's time, but also how it affects us now. This week, we are looking at the start of Paul's letter (2 Corinthians 1:3-7) and the paradox of Comfort in Affliction. We usually think that following God means our lives should be easy, but we learn that suffering should be expected. When we do have afflictions or suffering, we can know that God provides comfort too. This is our first paradox we will look into during this series. Thank you again for worshipping with us.
