About this episode
The episode discusses Paul's journey in Acts 9, emphasizing that being chosen by God involves challenges and preparation.
Paul’s story in Acts 9 reminds us that being chosen by God doesn’t mean life will be easy. Paul was chosen, yet opposed. Chosen, yet delayed through years of hidden preparation. Chosen, yet shaped through suffering. But none of it meant God had abandoned him; it meant God was forming him. In seasons of resistance, waiting, or pain, there is still purpose.
