In Acts 17, Paul demonstrates how to custom-craft the gospel with compassion, connection, and courage. Like him, we’re called to share hope with love while trusting God to work through us.

Danny Strange and AJ Vanegas discuss practical ways we can follow Paul’s example in Acts 17 to bring hope into everyday conversations.

Join AJ Vanegas and Danny Strange as we unpack 1 Peter 3:8–16. We’ll talk about how living with hope, integrity, and humility can spark conversations that point people to Jesus—and how to be ready when those moments come.

When Christians cultivate deep spiritual friendships, embrace humble self-awareness, and live with integrity, their lives radiate a distinctive hope that draws others' curiosity. Rather than forcing conversations about faith, believers who embody this hope create natural opportunities for others to ask about the source of their strength—transforming everyday suffering and workplace challenges into golden moments for sharing the gospel.

Jesus teaches that the kingdom of God grows like a seed—mysteriously, gradually, and through the patient work of sowers who trust God to bring the harvest. As ambassadors of Christ, we are called to engage resistant unbelievers not with arguments or aggression, but with the heart of a gracious gardener. This sermon will teach us to evangelize like Jesus, who asked far more questions than He answered. By asking great questions, we strategically cultivate curiosity to understand the soil of people’s hearts, gently dig into their beliefs with thoughtful questions, and patiently offer trellises of truth through respectful dialogue. Rather than rushing to win debates in a culture skeptical of Christianity, we will see that this posture of love, humility, and curiosity can open doors for meaningful spiritual conversations, pointing others to the hope we have in Christ.

When Jesus invited the disciples to follow him and become fishers of men, he was calling them into a vocation that would transform how they approached everything they did. This new calling starts when we invite Jesus into our daily work and recognize that our true mission is serving the people around us, not just completing tasks.
