Outline

I. LESS THAN THE LEAST
Does Paul the apostle have low self-esteem, or is it something more?

II. PARTAKERS OF THE PROMISE
The Gentiles? But how is that possible?

III. A TOOL FOR GLORY MANAGEMENT
Christianity talks about suffering in the strangest of ways

Sermon Discussion Questions

1. Do you consider yourself the biggest sinner you know? Why or why not? How is Paul’s self-awareness connected to his gospel-awareness?
2. Who are the “Gentiles” in your life? Who do you view as “irredeemable?”
3. How does Paul’s understanding of suffering and his imprisonment challenge modern attitudes? What makes Christianity so unique?
