"Joyful Followers In A Pandemic," 2 Corinthians 12:7-10


1. Often we assume that suffering is simply something we must endure. In what ways did you change in your view of suffering based on this passage (2 Corinthians 12:7-10)?

2. Why does suffering provide such a temptation to become angry at God and conclude he is not good? How do we counter this?

3. Most events we experience have multiple causes or influences (such as us, sin, evil spirits, and/or God). Why is this so important to grasp?

4. Why did Jesus Christ not answer Paul’s repeated prayers for relief from suffering? Why is this significant for us?

5. This passage strongly implies that valuing the glory of Christ above all else is crucial in our handling of suffering well. Explain why this is true.

6. Summarize what you learned about facing this pandemic as a joyful follower of Jesus Christ.
