The Domino EffectSample

Paul has to be super frustrated with his life and his circumstances. He is before the Sanhedrin, a group of religious leaders, and defends himself as a Christian. He even insults the high priest, not knowing he was in the crowd. Oops! Have you ever done that? Said something out loud, not knowing it offended someone there? We have all had moments where we wish we could put our foot in our mouth. And Paul was probably like, “Really? I am already in a mess. Can this really get worse? God, don’t you have my back here?”

Have you ever been in situations like that? Where you feel like you are doing the right thing, but you don’t catch a break? What do you do when that happens? Do you shake your fist at God? Shut down? Or do you react like Paul did? It seems like every time Paul would find himself in these types of situations, he would commit to share his story and talk about Jesus, his death and resurrection.
