Scripture: Acts 4:20
Peter and John weren’t trying to be bold. They were trying to be faithful. Boldness in Acts isn’t personality, it’s conviction. These were ordinary men who had seen an empty tomb and encountered a living Savior. Silence was no longer an option.
Witness isn’t about having all the answers. It’s about being honest about what Jesus has done. The early church didn’t argue people into the Kingdom. They testified to a reality they could no longer deny.
As we enter this series, the question isn’t whether we’re outspoken... it’s whether we’re convinced. Have we so encountered Christ that silence feels impossible?
Prayer:
Jesus, remind us again of what we have seen and heard. Renew our awe. Rekindle our joy. Let our lives quietly, and courageously, point to You. Amen.
“For we cannot stop speaking about what we have seen and heard.”
