Doug's Coffee Break Episode 536 - Acts 14:11-13 - A wild misunderstanding to the miracle

from Doug’s Coffee Break · host Doug Johnson

When Paul heals a crippled man in Lystra, the crowd misreads the miracle entirely—seeing gods, not apostles. In a blend of local legend and pagan fervor, they mistake Paul and Barnabas for Hermes and Zeus, rushing to offer sacrifices. This episode unpacks the cultural layers behind their reaction and the challenge of preaching the gospel across belief systems.
