In this week's message from the Enduring Grace podcast, Pastor Ben Hill explores the transformative power of a life fully submitted to God. Drawing from Acts 8, we look at the early church’s response to intense persecution—a season of scattering that God used as a "slingshot" to propel the Gospel into Judea and Samaria.

Pastor Ben highlights three key pillars of the submitted life:

1. Submitting to God's Will: Understanding that even in trials and persecution, God is sovereignly spreading His message.
2. Submitting to God's Instruction: Moving beyond a profession of faith to a life of active discipleship and engagement with Scripture.
3. Submitting to God's Calling: Learning to respond with immediate obedience, whether called to a crowded city or a lonely desert road.

Through the examples of Stephen, Philip, and the Ethiopian eunuch, we are challenged to ask: Am I willing to be a "nobody" so that the "Somebody" who can save everyone might be known? Join us as we reflect on what it means to surrender our entire world to the one who rose from the grave for us.
