Title: The Dividends of Understanding
Scripture: "And now, dear brothers and sisters, let me remind you of the good news that I preached to you before. You know how I spent my time with you, and how I worked hard to preach the Good News to you. But I was with you in weakness, in fear, and in much trembling. And my message and my preaching were not with persuasive words of wisdom, but with demonstration of the Spirit and of power, so that your faith would not rest on human wisdom, but on God's power." - 1 Corinthians 2:1-5 (NLT)
