Acts 9:22-23

The Bible contains several stories in which God asks questions. God asks these questions because we need the answers, and you’ll see each inquiry as an invitation for a personal conversation—and encounter—with the King of kings to seek the answers that bring about His revelation, transformation, and victory.

Paul wasn’t one of the original twelve apostles. Nonetheless, he took Jesus’ Great Commission to heart and spent his entire life making disciples, or students, of everyone he met. He shared the Gospel with them, then taught them how to illustrate that Gospel so it would never be called into question, others would accept it, and God would be glorified. Now it’s our turn! 

We all make mistakes, and sometimes they can tarnish our reputation. Consider the Apostle Paul. He persecuted Christians before God called him to preach the gospel. His reputation was so soiled, the apostles wanted nothing to do with him. This Bible reading plan shows us the steps Paul took to rebuild his reputation, steps that we can follow, too, when faced with our own mistakes.
