This sermon draws from Paul and Barnabas's missionary journey in Acts 14 to emphasize three essential attitudes for faithful Christian witness: being ready for opposition, ready to support believers, and ready to glorify God. It portrays Paul's resilience in the face of stoning not as mere endurance, but as a profound demonstration of commitment to his mission. Todd Billman underscores that true faithfulness involves returning to strengthen new believers, even at great personal cost, and that discipleship requires intentional, ongoing care rather than one-time evangelism. The narrative highlights the importance of honest teaching—acknowledging that tribulation is part of the Christian journey—while rejecting self-glory in favor of attributing all success to God's grace. Ultimately, the message calls the church to embrace inconvenience, courage, and humility, recognizing that the gospel's power lies not in human effort, but in divine transformation, and that every believer is called to share this life-changing truth with boldness and love. Outline: When sharing the Gospel, we must... 1) Be Ready for Opposition 2) Be Ready to Support Believers! 3) Be Ready to Glorify God!
