June 16th 2025 "ACTS Chapter 16 & 17"

Happy Father’s Day! As Paul traveled with Silas, they were joined by Timothy in Lystra. Led by the Holy Spirit, they shared the Gospel, leading Lydia to Christ, casting out a spirit from a slave girl, and eventually finding themselves imprisoned. But even behind bars, they didn’t stop worshiping. As they prayed and praised God at midnight, an earthquake shook the prison, opening the doors and breaking their chains. Through their faith, a jailer and his entire household came to believe and were baptized. Today, we’re reminded that no matter the opposition or trials we face, God still gives us opportunities. Like Paul and Silas, we can choose to worship in the middle of hardship. Let’s not allow our circumstances to silence our praise or weaken our trust in our Heavenly Father, who is always with us guiding, strengthening, and working through us..
