Sermon Guide

Connect:

Identify a situation or two where your response has been, “But I…” to something you should have done. 

What excuse did you offer? What regret did this lead to? 

“But I” is a response that doesn’t just keep you from succeeding, it prevents you from even trying.

“But God” means that this world does not get the last word on who you become or what you can do. 

Engage:

Read 1 Corinthians 1:26-31 

  • How does Paul describe God’s perspective on social power and influence? 

  • What are some ways that our views of social power and influence are different? Why is this difference significant? 

Read Genesis 50:20, Psalms 73:26, Matthew 19:26, and 1 Samuel 16:7

  • What is the contrast between God's way and man's way that is drawn in each of these verses? 

  • What do we learn about God's character in each of these passages? 

Read 2 Corinthians 12:7-10

  • What does Paul learn about God because of the “thorn in his flesh”?

  • What is his response?

  • Do you have a "thorn in the flesh" experience? What have you learned as you've wrestled with God?  

Read 1 Corinthians 2:1-5

  • What does it mean that Paul "was with (The Corinthians) in weakness"?

  • Who is in your life that you have the opportunity to serve in the same way?
