3 Points:

  • Being intentional to share Jesus will cost you something; it requires determination.
  • When leading people to Jesus: Be mindful to resist pulling the weeds of sin; instead, be intentional to water the seeds of grace in people’s lives.
  • When leading people to Jesus: Start with their stories and terms; show how Jesus enters into them.

3 Observations:

  • Paul’s mission became the church’s mission at Antioch.
  • Paul uses their stories and writings to lead them to Jesus.
  • Without his companions, Paul would have probably been ineffective or dead.
