Christians in Corinth were suspicious of Paul and his motives. They had no evidence for their allegations but that made no difference to them. They were willing to destroy Paul's reputation anyway.

Paul genuinely loved his Corinthian 'children'. But the more he loved them, the less they seemed to love him. Puzzling but true.

The Corinthian believers had every reason to love, trust and listen to Paul. So why were they so reluctant to do so?

Paul could rejoice in his weaknesses - for Christ's sake. Why did Paul love Christ so dearly?

Paul learned to glory in the thorn in his flesh. Thorns come in many shapes and sizes. What is yours? And can you glory in it?
