What if the very accusations meant to silence you became the stage God designed for you to speak? In a city where everything—from the chicken you eat to the car you drive—is politicized, Pastor Mark draws from Acts 24-26 to show that the early church faced the same exhausting spiral we do today: politicizing, polarizing, demonizing, dehumanizing. Standing before corrupt Governor Felix—a man drowning in moral compromise—Paul refused to pull punches or kiss the ring. Instead, he spoke directly about righteousness, self-control, and judgment, the very things Felix lacked. The antidote isn't louder arguments or sharper rhetoric—it's operating in the opposite spirit, speaking truth in love, and making much of Jesus, the One who answered empire not with a legion of angels, but with a towel, a donkey, and a cross. Don't shrink back. Listen deeply, love fiercely, and make Jesus impossible to ignore. In Jesus' name, amen. Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company. See https://pcm.adswizz.com
