Jesus Goes Global Volume 5 - The Gospel Goes to Prison: A Divine Opportunity
Listen now
Description
Dr. John takes us to Thessalonica, where Paul’s message of a suffering and risen Messiah sparked both excitement and intense opposition. Though he only spent three weeks there, his preaching from the Scriptures led to riots and fierce resistance. Now, as we move to Acts 24, Paul faces false accusations before Governor Felix. Dr. John unpacks how Paul courageously defends the gospel, even amid growing opposition. The Gospel Goes to Prison: Join us this week in our series through the book of Acts, “The Gospel goes to Prison.” We will see that despite Paul’s imprisonment, God’s truth is not held behind bars. Persecution cannot suppress the power of the Gospel. For most, imprisonment for the sake of the gospel is not a fear. But, we can face pressure to conform and hostility meant to silence us. May the lessons of Acts 21-24 make us bold as we carry His Gospel today.
