We’re reminded from 1 Thessalonians 2 and Acts 17 that opposition in our faith doesn’t mean we’re outside God’s will—often it means we’re right in the center of it, just as the early disciples faced persecution yet boldly shared the gospel. As people entrusted with the good news, we’re challenged not only to proclaim it but to live it authentically, offering both the gospel and our lives in a way that demonstrates our hope in Christ
