Welcome back to Daily Living for Christ! Today, we're venturing into a pivotal chapter in the early church's history – a story of unexpected expansion, radical inclusion, and the undeniable work of the Holy Spirit.

Ever felt like God was pushing you beyond your comfort zone? That's exactly what happened to the first believers in Antioch. In Acts 11:19-30, we witness the Gospel breaking barriers, spreading to the Gentiles, and sparking a movement that would transform Christianity forever.

In this episode, we'll uncover:

• The Ripple Effect of Persecution: How scattering led to unexpected growth.
• A New Kind of Church: Why Antioch became a model of diversity and mission.
• Barnabas, the Encourager: His role in fostering faith and finding a young leader named Saul.
• Lessons for Today: How God uses us, even when we feel scattered, to further His kingdom.
