In this compelling message from 2 Corinthians 11, Pastor Jeffrey Johnson offers a countercultural and deeply biblical approach to boasting. Titled "How to Brag to the Glory of God," the sermon reveals how the Apostle Paul’s “resume” is marked not by accolades, achievements, or human strength, but by suffering, weakness, and dependence on Christ. Paul shows us that true boasting—God-glorifying boasting—focuses not on self-exaltation, but on the power of God revealed in our frailty.

Pastor Johnson highlights two key points: first, never boast in your strengths, for boasting is both shameful and selfish; and second, if you must boast, boast in your weaknesses. Through detailed exposition, we see Paul list trials such as imprisonments, beatings, shipwrecks, and deep concern for the churches—not to elevate himself, but to magnify God’s sustaining grace. His trials become testimonies to God’s power, not his own ability.

This message challenges modern views of success and encourages believers to rethink what it means to have a “godly resume.” Whether you're facing setbacks, feeling spiritually inadequate, or wrestling with weakness, this sermon will remind you that God's strength is made perfect in our weakness. The call is clear: boast not in what you’ve done, but in what God has done in you—especially through your most difficult moments.
