Fragrant Faith: Spreading the Aroma of Christ - Part 6

Are You Being Built Up—or Just Impressed? Discussion Questions for 2 Corinthians 10-11:

1. What are some "earthly weapons" people rely on today, and how do they differ from the spiritual weapons Paul describes?
2. How do we practically "take every thought captive"? What does that look like in a day-to-day mental battle?
3. When have you seen someone use their leadership position to build others up rather than tear them down?
4. Why do we often fall into the trap of comparing ourselves to others in life (or ministry), and what exactly can shift our focus back to God's unique calling for us?
5. What does it mean to be "betrothed to Christ"? How does that shape our daily choices and loyalties?
6. In what ways do "false apostles" or modern spiritual distractions pull believers away from the simplicity of Christ today?
7. How can we discern the difference between charisma that may draw larger crowds and genuine Christ-centered power in teaching today?
