Testimony: Have you shared it?

This powerful message challenges us to consider a profound question: are we always ready to share our story? Drawing from Acts 26, we encounter Paul standing before King Agrippa, chains on his wrists, yet boldly proclaiming his testimony. What makes this moment so compelling is how Paul organizes his story—like a traffic light moving from red to yellow to green. First, he describes where he was stopped in sin, zealously persecuting Christians while thinking he served God. Then comes the yellow light—his dramatic encounter with Jesus on the Damascus road, that moment of yielding when everything changed. Finally, the green light: where he's going now, compelled to share Christ with anyone who will listen. This isn't just Paul's pattern; it's a template for all of us. We don't need a dramatic conversion from drug addiction or a criminal past to have a testimony worth sharing. Whether our story involves a single transformative moment or a season of gradual awakening, it carries weight. The truth is, we've all been rescued from something, redirected by Someone, and sent with a purpose. Our testimony is one of the greatest tools God has given us—not to judge or argue, but simply to witness to what we've seen and known to be true. When we share authentically about where we were, how God met us, and where we're heading now, we give others permission to believe that transformation is possible for them too.
