    It’s interesting that we think of Paul as someone who stands out on his own. He’s the great apostle to the Gentiles, a man who stands head and shoulders above the rest. Yet in reality he was a man who loved to work as part of a team. He started out with Barnabas, then joined up with Silas, then he ...read more

    Paul takes the context of a pagan city and uses their apparent spiritual thirst to tell them about Jesus and his rescue from the judgement to come.

    Here’s Paul, left alone in Athens, the cultural capital of the world. How do you think he’d be feeling? Overwhelmed? Excited? Fascinated? Imagine this is you, not in Athens, but in New York or Paris or Rome or Berlin? How would you be feeling? Like you couldn’t wait to get out and start exploring? ...read more

    Spiritual struggles like Nathan’s are common. Therefore, before we talk to people about being in right relationship with God, we may need to address their core beliefs about His existence and offer reassurance about the reasonableness of belief. Indeed,

    After his grandmother’s funeral, 15 year-old Nathan really started thinking about God. Because his grandmother had been a faithful Christian, the minister spoke about her eternal rewards. But talk of heaven and the afterlife caused Nathan to wonder, “How do we really know there’s a God and an ...read more
