Acts 24-26 - Surrendering our Expectations - Ryan Rhoden
October 2, 2022
Paul heard and was directed by God, and how that impacted how he carried himself through opposition, riots, physical attacks, arrests, trials and imprisonment.
Hearing God clearly doesn’t guarantee smooth sailing and it does't insulate us from disappointment but it is about trusting God with the His timing and how it comes about.
Let's see what we can learn from Paul in how he navigates this reality.
