Beautiful Brokenness

Alpha and Omega Ministries International "Audio Messages"

In this message we marry Japanese ceramic artistry to the context of 2 Corinthians. Using Ancient Japanese ceramic styles and techniques to illustrate both: a) the Corinthian Church’s tainted expectation of what Paul an Apostle should be like, and b) Paul’s striking response to them. Giving further elaboration to Paul’s emphatic rebuttal of their errant views. My purpose in metaphorically contrasting these opposing views on what an Apostle (or any follower of Jesus) should be like, is to reveal to how beautiful our brokenness is in the hands of our Heavenly Father.
