21 Christ's Power in our Weakness 2 Corinthians 12'1-10

October 12, 2025
John Owen Butler

Discover the paradox of true strength in “Christ’s Power in Our Weakness” from 2 Corinthians 12:1–10. This sermon explores Paul’s thorn in the flesh, God’s purpose in suffering, and Christ’s all-sufficient grace. Learn how weakness becomes the stage for Christ’s power, how His grace sustains us in affliction, and how believers can find joy and strength in humble dependence on Him. A message of hope for the weary, encouragement for the suffering, and a call to glory in the cross where divine power is made perfect in human frailty. AM Sermon, 12 October 2025, Lebanon Presbyterian Church (PCA), Abbeville County, South Carolina, USA
