In this episode I walk through Paul and Barnabas’ first missionary journey in Acts chapters 13 and 14, exploring how the early church carried the gospel into hostile and unfamiliar territory. We see evangelism in action, powerful miracles that confirm God’s message, and intense opposition that fails to stop the work of the Holy Spirit.

This journey reminds us that faithfulness matters more than results and that God often uses ordinary believers to accomplish eternal purposes. From Antioch to Cyprus, Iconium, Lystra, and back again, this episode shows how the gospel advances through obedience, perseverance, and God’s grace, no matter the hardship. If you’re navigating resistance, discouragement, or questions about your calling, this study will encourage you to trust that God is still opening doors of faith today.
