The Road to Damascus // Pastor Curtis Thompson

The Road to Damascus – Acts 9:1–9Saul was traveling to Damascus with one purpose: to arrest followers of Jesus. But before he reached the city, Jesus confronted him—and everything changed.In this episode, Pastor Curtis walks through Saul’s encounter with Christ in Acts 9 and four defining moments on his road to Damascus: he was confronted, called, converted, and commissioned. And while our encounters with Jesus may not look as dramatic as Saul’s, every believer is called to that same journey of transformation.The message also challenges us to recognize that God can use what happens to us to prepare for what He wants to do through us. Even when circumstances seem contrary to what we have prayed for, God is still working—and what feels sudden to us was never sudden to Him.Ultimately, Saul still arrived in Damascus, but he arrived as a completely different man: same destination, different assignment. The persecutor became a believer and preacher of the gospel he once tried to destroy.This message is a reminder that God has not only called us to salvation—He has called us to maturity, transformation, and participation in His mission. Everyone may not have a pulpit, but everyone has a platform.#acts9 #roadtodamascus #apostlepaul #bookofacts #sermon #christianpodcast #biblestudy #conversion #salvation #jesus #gospel #christianliving #discipleship #sanctification #calling #christianteaching #onechurch #faith
