Acts 22:6011

Paul recounts his conversion on the road to Damascus. The blinding light. The voice of Jesus. The revelation of truth. It is one of the most significant moments in all of history. It was the moment when Paul learned the gospel. He talks about it again and again in his writings.

Let's discuss the revelation of the gospel to Paul on today's Text Talk.

Sometimes we are shocked by Paul's about face when we see his conversion on the road to Damascus. In today's reading, though, we discover why that about face was so "easy" for Saul to make.

Let's talk about Saul's zeal for God that allowed him to become the apostle Paul.

Acts 21:27-40

How amazing is it that Paul, a suspected assassin and seeming troublemaker, simply asks the Roman tribune if he can speak to the crowd, and because he can speak Greek, the guy says, "Sure"? Can anyone else see God working behind this? Let's talk about that on today's Text Talk.

Acts 21:17-26

We get a real life of example of Paul living out his claim that he would be all things to all men that he might by any and all means save some. He was even willing to participate in some votive sacrifices to keep from having an obstacle between him and the Jews he wished to teach and have saved. Let's talk about that today on Text Talk.

Acts 21:17-20

The Christians in Jerusalem were scattered by persecution in Acts 8. However, by Acts 21, James is able to say there were thousands of Jewish Christians again. What a powerful testimony to the work of God and also to the role of developing leaders who will work hard. Let's talk about that on today's Text Talk.

When Paul would not be swayed by the pleas of the brothers and sisters to stay out of Jerusalem, they resigned themselves by saying, "Let the will of the Lord be done." And really, that is just how we need to live at all times, isn't it? Let's talk about that on Text Talk today.

Acts 21:7-16

Paul was ready to walk into Jerusalem, be arrested, go to prison, and even die for the Lord. What kind of faith and commitment does that take? Let's talk about that today on Text Talk.

We reference Scott Hafemann's book "Suffering and the Spirit" in today's episode.*

Acts 20:22-35

Paul was willing to walk into Jerusalem, get beaten, get arrested, get thrown in prison, and even die? How did he pull that off? Because he had his values and priorities in line. That leaves us with a question. "What do I value?" Edwin and Andrew talk about values today.
