The Bible Project Daily Podcast Paul’s Defence of His Ministry. (2 Cor 10: 1-18)
Episode Notes:
In this episode of The Bible Project Daily Podcast, we explore one of the most human — and most Christ-like — portraits of the Apostle Paul. Confronted by critics who accused him of weakness, Paul reveals the paradox at the heart of Christian leadership: strength under control, authority wrapped in humility.
Through a close reading of 2 Corinthians 10, we learn how Paul models the character of Christ — the One who could overturn tables and still handle the doves with care.
Key Themes:
· The danger of misplaced criticism and comparison
· How to confront opposition with grace and authority
· The example of Christ as both meek and mighty
· Learning to balance courage with compassion
Reflection:
In your own life, where do you need to develop a stronger backbone — and where do you need to soften your approach with gentleness?
Call to Action:
Share this episode with someone who leads others — in ministry, in family, or in work — and encourage them to find that holy balance of firmness and kindness.
