Acts | Part 46 | Living The Christ Life In Acts 25 And 26

Message Us!

Most of us don’t mind Jesus in the passenger seat until the road gets rough. Walking through Acts 25 and Acts 26, we wrestle with a hard question: who is actually driving your life right now? We start with the temptation to control everything, then move toward the daily surrender Scripture calls “the Christ life” rooted in Galatians 2:20 and the practice of dying to self day by day.

Paul becomes our living case study. He has endured years of accusations, delays, and imprisonment, and now a new governor, Festus, reopens the case while powerful voices push for a “fair trial” that is really a setup. When Paul appeals to Caesar, it is not panic, pride, or strategy for comfort. It is obedience to the direction Jesus already gave him, a clear reminder that God can move his plans forward even through broken systems and hostile people.

Then the spotlight turns to our mouths. Paul stands before King Agrippa and an elite crowd and refuses to shrink back. He shares the gospel as a royal announcement: Jesus the risen King, repentance, faith, and the offer of new life. We bring it home to everyday discipleship, including what we say to enemies, what we type online, and why anxiety grows when we insist on staying in control. If you want peace on a bumpy road, let Christ take the wheel.
