Disciples Making Disciples // Don’t Give Up

Joel Wood | May 25 2025

It’s easy for us to give up on being a part of God’s mission in this world. Perhaps that’s because we feel ill-equipped to be part of God’s mission. Perhaps that’s because we have faced opposition or apathy from others when we have tried to tell them about Jesus. Perhaps it’s because the difficulty and suffering of our lives has left us feeling like we can no longer take part in God’s mission. Whatever it may be, there will always be reasons for us to “give up” on the mission of making disciples. Acts 14 gives us a window into why perseverance is required and how God enables us to persevere in the mission.
