2 Corinthians: Serving from the Heart (New Community Bible Study Series)

by John Ortberg Kevin G. Harney Sherry Harney

Extend the Compassion and Grace of Jesus Jesus came to serve, sacrifice, and die. His humble lifestyle flies in the face of the conventional wisdom of a society that is fixated on getting more and scraping our way to the top. Not only did the Savior model a life of extraordinary service, he called his followers to join him in this mission. In 2 Corinthians we find a pathway to Jesus-like living. Paul calls us to align our hearts and lives with the way of the Savior and offer authentic love, amazing grace, extravagant generosity, and humble service. As we do this, we are shaped into the image of the One who served so hard he ended up on a cross.

Absolutely essential reading' HALLIE RUBENHOLD'The astonishing story of an extraordinary woman' JONATHAN FREEDLANDAgent Zo tells the incredible true story of Elżbieta Zawacka, the WW2 resistance fighter known as 'Zo'.
