5/10/2026 Will You Betray Your Friend for the Fraud/Communion

In this episode, Seth and Tj discuss the content of high school and middle school classes for Sunday, May 10th. The High School Theme: --2 Corinthians 11 --Paul defends his reputation to those he serves. --He mentions that the Corinthians are quick to accept foolish and false teachers, but are seemingly quick to be angry at him. --He defends his apostleship--not to be arrogant--to remind them that what he wants for them is the ultimate good, and to beware of those who would make the Christians believe Paul is somehow their enemy. The Middle School Theme: --What occupies your mind when you take the communion? --The Bible tells us that the communion is more than a simple reminder that Jesus died; it is an invitation to something deeper and a reminder that you are a part of something larger.
