Seventh Sunday after Pentecost (Year B) - 7/7/24
Manage episode 426586040 series 2775621
Boasting can make both friends and enemies. With the right amount of boasting, one can bolster other's opinions of them. Too much, the boast-er is seen as arrogant, rude, or haughty. Paul, rather, "boast[s] all the more gladly of my weaknesses, so that the power of Christ may dwell in me" (2 Cor. 12.9). What does boating in weakness look like? What does boasting look like when one has been trained to embody humility? Should Christians boast? Paul does, after all. Jonathan and Seth discuss a theology of boasting in this week's episode.
We're glad you're here - as always. This week, Jonathan went through a struggle to get this episode out. The recordings sounded like robots took over the episode. We're also thankful he powered through and we could bring this episode to you!
