Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Corinthians 3:1-18 as a part of our sermon series, "A Cross-Shaped Life."

Paul addressed the Corinthian church's confusion about the relationship between the old Mosaic law and faith in Jesus. He explained that Jesus didn't come to add to the old covenant but to fulfill what was incomplete. The new covenant through Christ brings three revolutionary changes: God's presence is now permanent rather than temporary, our hearts are set free from uncertainty about our standing with God, and we are gradually transformed into Christ's image as we live before His face. This transformation happens through living 'Coram Deo' - before the face of God - allowing His presence to change how we speak, act, and think in every aspect of life.

Today you'll get four short messages from four of our senior girls here at FPC! Tune in as Aubrey Bailey, Trinity Clark, Reagan Bradley, and Payton Lee teach us about four different attributes of God. We know you will be encouraged to hear the wisdom of these young women as they are reflecting on who God is and the impact their faith is actively making in their lives.

Rev. James Harper preaches on 2 Corinthians 2:12-17 as part of our sermon series, "A Cross-Shaped Life."

The Scripture is not included in the podcast this week, so here it is:

12 When I came to Troas to preach the gospel of Christ, even though a door was opened for me in the Lord, 13 my spirit was not at rest because I did not find my brother Titus there. So I took leave of them and went on to Macedonia.

14 But thanks be to God, who in Christ always leads us in triumphal procession, and through us spreads the fragrance of the knowledge of him everywhere. 15 For we are the aroma of Christ to God among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing, 16 to one a fragrance from death to death, to the other a fragrance from life to life. Who is sufficient for these things? 17 For we are not, like so many, peddlers of God's word, but as men of sincerity, as commissioned by God, in the sight of God we speak in Christ.
