2 Corinthians: Audio Lectures

19 Lessons on History, Meaning, and Application

By: Scott J. Hafemann

Narrated by: Scott J. Hafemann

The Zondervan Biblical and Theological Lectures series provides a unique audio learning experience. Unlike a traditional audiobook's direct narration of a book's text, 2 Corinthians: Audio Lectures includes high quality live-recordings of college-level lectures that cover the important points from each subject as well as relevant material from other sources.

If anyone deserved the respect of Corinthian believers, it was the apostle Paul. Yet in his second letter to the church at Corinth, we find Paul defending his character and credibility against the malicious attacks of false apostles. Rather than highlighting his personal strengths, amazingly, Paul points to his weaknesses! Paul's approach reveals one of the paradoxes of God's kingdom: God's strength was made perfect through the apostle's weakness. So it remains today. God's sufficiency shines in the face of our insufficiency, and his most powerful work is accomplished through us when we acknowledge our weakness and complete dependence on him.

2 Corinthians: Audio Lectures features scholar Scott Hafemann teaching through the book of 2 Corinthians in 19 engaging and challenging lessons. Based on Hafemann's 2 Corinthians commentary in the NIV Application Commentary series, these lessons explore the links between the Bible and our own times that reveal 2 Corinthians' enduring relevance for our twenty-first-century lives.
