This sermon from Acts 16 explores Paul's second missionary journey, emphasizing the importance of living intentionally for the gospel rather than drifting through life. Through the story of Lydia's conversion and Timothy's willingness to sacrifice for ministry effectiveness, the sermon demonstrates that God opens hearts while believers have the responsibility to move with purpose, share the gospel, and trust God's sovereignty in salvation. Pastor Jeff encourages believers to stop waiting for dramatic signs and instead take faithful steps based on what Scripture already reveals. The sermon balances divine sovereignty with human responsibility, showing that while only God can save, Christians must be obedient in sharing the gospel clearly and trusting Him with the results.
