Today, we’ll take a look at what the apostle Paul referred to as his thorn in the flesh. Still today, God gives His children thorns, and as we’ll see it’s for good reason!

I Know a Man Who Visited Heaven Part 2
When God uses someone in your life, there can be that tendency within us to want to put them on some sort of pedestal. Because you’re thankful. Or let’s say the Lord is really using you and blessing your life… and people are thanking and praising you left and right. About that time you’re tempted to think of yourself more highly than you ought to. Today on Abounding Grace we’ll be encouraged to adopt a perspective modeled for us by the apostle Paul. He was humble, and just saw himself as a servant. He certainly didn’t want to draw attention to himself or receive the glory for what God did in and through his life. Pastor Ed Taylor opens Second Corinthians twelve, and urges us to live with that mindset.

I Know a Man Who Visited Heaven Part 1
Many of us have wondered what heaven is going to be like, and Scripture gives us just enough to whet our appetite! But imagine what it would be like to be taken on up to heaven, for a look around, but not being able to tell others about it. Such was the case for the apostle Paul, and we’ll hear about this experience as we turn in our Bibles to Second Corinthians chapter twelve.

A Typical Spiritual Resume Part 2
Today on Abounding Grace we notice the great sacrifice that came with being an apostle. And it’s a reminder to us of the great cost attached to ministry. Pastor Ed Taylor opens Second Corinthians eleven and if we had to sum up the latter half of the chapter in a word, it would be sacrifice! As we recall the apostle Paul’s spiritual resume, you’ll quickly realize sacrifice and difficulty were a big part of it.

A Typical Spiritual Resume Part 1
Many of us have put together a resume in an attempt to land a job. And we typically try to put our best foot forward, and highlight our best qualities. Today on Abounding Grace we’ll have you think about your spiritual resume! Maybe like the guy we’ll meet today, it’s not that impressive by the world’s standards. But be encouraged, God can still very much use you. We join pastor Ed Taylor in First Corinthians chapter eleven.
