In 2 Corinthians 5:1-10, Paul reminds us that our earthly bodies are like tents, temporary and fragile. As they are torn down, we have the promise of an eternal house from God, not made with human hands. This upgrade offers hope and assurance to those who live in the spirit of courage, knowledge, faith, and ambition. How do we prepare for this transformation? By embodying these qualities that define us as believers. Join us in exploring what it means to be “absent from the body but present with the Lord” and who is eligible for this divine upgrade.
