## Resource

We sit down with David Belanger and Community Life Pastor Brent Becker to chat about Acts 22-23. When obedience leads to conflict, how should Christians respond? In this episode, we walk through the dramatic events of Acts of the Apostles 22–23 as Paul the Apostle faces mob violence, legal pressure, and a deadly conspiracy. From invoking his Roman citizenship to confronting the Sanhedrin, Paul models how believers can navigate cultural chaos with wisdom, courage, and integrity. Most importantly, in Paul’s darkest moment, Jesus Christ draws near with a simple command: “Take courage.” Preacher: Brent Becker Text: Acts 22-23 Sermon Link: HERE
