Modern-Day Evangelism: Part 3

Sep 28, 2025    Pastor Robert Fickel

In this powerful exploration of evangelism, we delve into the journey of Paul the Apostle in Acts 16. We witness how God's plans often diverge from our own, leading us to unexpected places and encounters. The story of Paul's redirection to Macedonia and his meeting with Lydia at the riverbank teaches us that divine guidance often unfolds in surprising ways. We're reminded that evangelism isn't about grand strategies or perfect conditions, but about being open to God's leading and sharing the good news wherever we find ourselves. The transformation of Lydia, a successful businesswoman, shows us that God can work through anyone, regardless of their background or status. This narrative challenges us to listen attentively to God's voice, to be flexible in our approach to sharing faith, and to trust that it's God who opens hearts to receive the message.
