Paul’s second letter to the Corinthians communicates how Christians have received a new identity which is no longer defined by past failures, human credentials, or outward appearances, but by God’s reconciling work through the gospel. Because believers are now new creations (5:17), empowered by the Holy Spirit, and entrusted with the ministry of reconciliation, the entire letter calls them to live out this identity by being a people who are on mission for God and for the benefit of others.
In 2 Corinthians, identity and mission are inseparable: God makes His people new in Christ, then sends them as ambassadors who embody the cruciform life — displaying Christ’s power, proclaiming His gospel, and carrying His reconciling love into the world. The pastors of Advance will be walking the church chapter-by-chapter through this powerful and compelling letter from September through November.
