Acts 16:25 - 17:34
ActsSteve Gregg
In "Acts 16:25 - 17:34", Steve Gregg discusses the apostles' evangelization of Philippi, their imprisonment, and release after a supernatural event. Paul and Silas faced opposition to their message but found receptive audiences among fair-minded Jewish people in Berea and in Athens, where Paul connected with the crowd by quoting Greek poets and philosophers while preaching about the unknown God. Although some mocked him, others joined and believed in his teachings about Jesus' resurrection, the one God who made everything, and the importance of seeking and finding Him.
