Paul tells us in 2 Timothy 2:2 to follow the example of the apostles and teach God’s word. Paul was a very persuasive teacher and really knew his stuff. His skill didn’t keep him from facing difficult situations though, did it? Paul was beaten, mocked, run out of town, arrested. (Acts 16, 17, 18) But he kept teaching – and that is the example he wants us to follow.
The next time you need a little boost in your courage, think about Paul and Silas as they travel through tough terrain converting some tough people.
