Persecution and Resurrection

This episode walks through Acts 14, recounting Paul and Barnabas’s missionary work: the healing of a man who had been crippled from birth, the crowd’s mistaken worship, and the violent opposition that led to Paul being stoned and assumed dead. The sermon emphasizes the paradox of the Christian life—suffering and persecution paired with resurrection hope—how the apostles planted and strengthened churches, and how believers are called to bear the marks of Christ while trusting in the risen Lord.
