0:00.0	Welcome to a year in the Bible with daily grace. The Bible tells one big story of
0:07.0	redemption and we want to spend five minutes every day journeying through the Bible from start to finish, and exploring how all of it
0:16.8	points to Jesus. Hey everybody. Thanks again for joining me today on a year in the Bible with
0:28.2	daily grace. My name is Jenny and today we are talking about 2nd
0:32.4	Corinthians chapter 7 through 9.
0:35.0	Yesterday we discussed the new covenant weariness in the body and Paul's defense
0:40.4	against accusations against his character.
0:43.0	Today Paul talks about joy in repentance and giving.
0:48.0	Both things are still extremely applicable to us today.

1:26.2	It is important to pause here and discuss that Jesus died on the cross so that we could be reconciled to God. However, if we are not pursuing a relationship with
1:37.5	him, even though we have committed our life to Christ, we will feel the tension of not walking close with him.
1:45.0	Therefore, we experience peace when we acknowledge our sins and commit to being obedient to his will.
1:52.0	As the Corinthians were being obedient to God, they also experience
1:56.6	reconciliation with Paul. Truly the Gospel is a ministry of reconciliation.
2:04.5	Next we move on to a discussion about giving.
2:07.4	In Chapter 8, Paul talks about how the Christians in Macedonia,
2:11.6	though they were very poor, were generously giving to others.
