(Acts 2:23-31) Amidst political agitation and social disintegration, what is the church called to do? This is not a time to sound retreat, but reveille, teaches Alistair Begg as he examines the early church’s response to persecution. Rather than seek protection or deliverance, the disciples prayed for Spirit-filled, Christ-centered boldness to continue to speak God’s word. As cultures and empires rise and fall, God still emboldens His people to proclaim the Gospel to a lost, destabilized world.
