Imprisonment, beatings, shipwrecks: all these things seem like situations that would prevent an effective ministry. But those very things are what God used to advance the gospel, even making its way to Caesar's household. Today we look at Paul's ministry, the hardships and opposition he faced and - at the same time - the opportunities he had to share Christ. How do you respond to trials in your life? Do you see them as opportunities to share the love of Christ? Or do you turn inward and wallow in self-pity? The question is really: Is the focus of your life you or Christ?
