Read 2 Corinthians 5:17 – 6:10

  • What stands out to you in this passage?
  • What might God be saying to you?

Take note of the three roles that Paul identifies here: “Ambassadors” (5:20), “Co-workers” (6:1), and “Servants” (6:4).

Take a minute to meditate on these words.

  • What comes up for you when you choose to view yourself as Christ’s ambassador?
  • His co-worker?
  • And his servant?

Paul is clear that working as God’s ambassador, and sharing his message of reconciliation with the world, will not be easy.

Take a closer look at the long list in 6:4-10.
