Paul in His Own Words 2 | The Suffering Servant

Episode 2.53 Paul’s life was a contradiction — beaten yet joyful, weak yet unstoppable. By the mid-50s A.D., he had endured rejection, imprisonment, and exhaustion. Yet his writings from this period reveal a man who found grace not by escaping pain, but by enduring it. In this episode, Zach and Michael walk through Paul’s “theology of scars,” exploring how his sufferings shaped both his ministry and message. From the “spectacle” language of 1 Corinthians to the “thorn in the flesh” of 2 Corinthians and the anguish of Romans, Paul’s life becomes a living sermon: God’s strength is made perfect in weakness. Covered in this episode: – Why Paul’s ministry looked like failure to the world but victory to heaven – The paradoxes of apostleship: sorrowful yet rejoicing, weak yet strong – The “Fool’s Speech” and the radical humility behind Paul’s boasting – Romans 7–9: Paul’s inner conflict and his deep compassion for Israel – How hardship, not applause, authenticates the gospel worker Takeaway: The Christian life isn’t about avoiding pain—it’s about discovering power through it. Paul’s story reminds us that endurance, not ease, is the true proof of grace. Find our podcast here: https://open.spotify.com/episode/14fi...
