Acts 17:16-17 and 22-31
In this passage, Paul is in one of the major cultural centers of his day: Athens. Even though there were countless sightseeing opportunities in the city, Paul was unable to enjoy them. Why? Because, as a missionary, his heart was broken over the idolatry he saw in the city. So, he spent his time going into the culture to intentionally preach about Jesus. Read Acts 17:16-17 and notice what Paul did before he preached Jesus. Yes, Paul went into the city and gained an understanding of the culture of the city. How often do you go into the culture of your town/city with the intention of asking God to reveal the needs of the city? Pray that God would show you how to reach our city.
