Paul and Barnabas had already experienced much violent opposition during their first missionary journey (Acts 13:6; Acts 13:45-51; Acts 14:5, Acts 14:13-15; Acts 14:19; 2 Timothy 3:11).

I also regularly share what I read with others when it resonates with where they are at - as a course of encouragement, challenge and insight. Thank you for your faithfulness. I feel part of a "working community church" in this respect.”
