Of the Risen Christ | No Empty Hope | Acts 14:1-28 | August 16, 2026

Everyone puts their hope in something. Everyone is trusting in something for their life that they are counting on to give them meaning, purpose, security, significance, and even their identity. And what we see in Paul and Barnabas in Acts 14 is that they have set their hope on the Lord such that the rejection of the crowd doesn't destroy and the applause of the crowd doesn't define.
