Acts 16–21

In this episode we'll talk about Acts 16-21. After Peter received instruction that the gospel was to be preached to both Jew and Gentile, a massive missionary effort began within the ancient church. Paul, formerly Saul, and his associates were some of those first Christian missionaries. We'll talk about the many trials and difficulties and Paul and his cohorts went through as they tried to preach about Jesus Christ. We'll discuss the mistaken belief that if we are obedient, we will not experience major trials and difficulties. We'll review how even though obedience yields blessings, some of those blessings don't come until later. And we'll discuss how suffering and adversity may play a large role in our spiritual development.
