From miracles in Lystra to persecution and stoning, this chapter reveals that faithful Christian mission often involves suffering, perseverance, and spiritual courage. Yet through every hardship, God continues strengthening His church, saving people, and advancing His kingdom. This study explores the cost of discipleship, the power of the gospel among the nations, and the unshakable faithfulness of God in the midst of trials.
