We are at a place in the book of Acts where life and circumstances are changing big time for the Apostle Paul, but there is one thing that isn't changing in his life and that should be the same for you and me. It matters not if we are male or female, young or old, a pastor, mechanic, clerk, or a student. If we are a Christian, it should never change in our lives either.

It is becoming very difficult to share the gospel with this present generation. There is less common ground to begin with than was true in the past. How do we get started? If you have struggled in sharing and explaining your faith with modern folks, you will this section of Acts to be very helpful. We will be studying how Paul addresses the people of Athens who were very much like our culture today. As we hear him reason with them, we will be better equipped to share our faith today.

In God's great love for all the world, He sent the gospel to all nations. In Acts we see the humble beginning of this great redemption of the world in Paul and Barnabas taking the first missionary journey. But we see much more — we learn how to share the gospel; we learn how to apply Biblical principles to even the strategy of evangelism; and we see men passionate about Christ, the gospel and the lost... and they inspire us to be better.

After concentrating on spreading the gospel to mainly Jewish audiences Acts takes a sudden shift to focus on evangelizing to the Gentiles. We can be very thankful that Jesus' grace extends to all the world.

In chapter 8 of Acts one thing we will be looking at is personal evangelism. 1 Peter 24:32 should challenge every Christian with at least two questions:
Allow the Spirit of God to challenge you to be better prepared to share your hope and faith.
