In this powerful episode, we feature a sermon Jesse preached from Acts 17, where the Apostle Paul engages the sophisticated, idol-worshipping Athenians with the transformative message of the Gospel. Titled "Troubled in Spirit: Moved by the Gospel," the sermon explores four key responses to a lost world: being troubled by lostness, being moved to act, practicing faithful contextualization, and trusting God for the results. Drawing from Paul’s bold yet winsome approach, the message challenges listeners to care deeply about the spiritually lost, engage them with wisdom, and share the hope of Christ in today’s diverse contexts. Perfect for anyone seeking to live out the Great Commission with purpose and compassion.

In this episode, missionary Jesse Schreck shares a powerful sermon preached to brothers and sisters at a US Army base in Italy, based on 2 Corinthians 11:1-6.
