Devotionals, Articles, and Bible Study Resources on 2 Corinthians 8:18-24

18Along with Titus we are sending the brother who is praised by all the churches for his work in the gospel.
19More than that, this brother was chosen by the churches to accompany us with the offering — the gracious gift we administer to honor the Lord Himself and to show our eagerness to help.
20We hope to avoid any criticism of the way we administer this generous gift.
21For we are taking great care to do what is right, not only in the eyes of the Lord, but also in the eyes of men.
22And we are sending along with them our brother whose earnestness has been proven many times and in many ways, and now even more so by his great confidence in you.
23As for Titus, he is my partner and fellow worker among you. As for our brothers, they are messengers of the churches, to the glory of Christ.
24In full view of the churches, then, show these men the proof of your love and the reason for our boasting about you.
