9. Boasting in the Lord

2 Corinthians is a passionate letter of Paul to the Corinthian church.  It sums up much of Paul's concern for the ministry of the word to those who have come to faith.  The letter deals with the inner man, the work of the Spirit within the hearts, rather than with the outward boasting of the 'super apostles' as he calls them.  It is much needed for all who are in ministry today as the pressure to perform mounts each day.
