A Glorious Calling: Acts 9:19-31

The Trails Church

Acts 9:19–31 continues to tell the story of how the gospel of Jesus Christ transformed every part of Saul’s life. Over the course of one chapter, he goes from being a violent persecutor of Christians to a passionate preacher of Jesus Christ. In the early days of his new life in Christ, we find multiple accounts that help frame the rest of the apostle’s days: a passion to proclaim the good news of Jesus with others, serious opposition various people groups, and the gospel expanding through his ministry – and the ministry of his fellow believers. These verses present A Glorious Calling that God placed on his life, a life that included: 1. A Call to Proclamation, 2. A Call to Persecution, and 3. A Call to Multiplication.
