In Search of Glory | Bob Wriedt | 2 Corinthians 3:7-11
What drives our desire for glory? From the Olympic podium to everyday life, people naturally long for recognition, achievement, and significance. While most of us will never stand before a global audience with a gold medal, we often pursue our own versions of glory through success, relationships, reputation, or personal accomplishments.
In this message from 2 Corinthians 3:7–11, we explore how the Bible reframes our understanding of glory. The Apostle Paul contrasts fading, temporary glory with the lasting, life-giving glory that comes through the Spirit of God. This passage invites us to consider where we seek significance and how the gospel offers something far greater than anything the world can provide. Join us as we discover how God’s unfading glory reshapes our identity, our purpose, and the way we live each day.

2 Corinthians 3:7-11
7 Now if the ministry of death, carved in letters on stone, came with such glory that the Israelites could not gaze at Moses' face because of its glory, which was being brought to an end, 8 will not the ministry of the Spirit have even more glory? 9 For if there was glory in the ministry of condemnation, the ministry of righteousness must far exceed it in glory. 10 Indeed, in this case, what once had glory has come to have no glory at all, because of the glory that surpasses it. 11 For if what was being brought to an end came with glory, much more will what is permanent have glory.
