Saul had an uphill battle trying to get people to trust that he wasn’t going to kill them. He didn’t let that stop him from spreading the Good News. Who will be the next Gospel champion in our community, how hungover are they this morning, and who will believe in them enough to share the Good News with them?
Acts 9:26-27 (NLT) 26 When Saul arrived in Jerusalem, he tried to meet with the believers, but they were all afraid of him. They did not believe he had truly become a believer! 27 Then Barnabas brought him to the apostles and told them how Saul had seen the Lord on the way to Damascus and how the Lord had spoken to Saul. He also told them that Saul had preached boldly in the name of Jesus in Damascus.
