Evangelizing a Pagan Culture

Evangelizing a Pagan Culture

Acts 17:16-34
Today’s world is full of idols that people ‘worship’ … things like money, possesions, power, sex and drugs. But do they satisfy? In the first century AD, Paul found himself in Athens, the intellectual and cultural capital of the world at that time. What he found was a city full of idols to the Greek gods. But the only true God was missing. So he took the opportunity to tell them, even getting an invitation to the Areopagus, the supreme ruling council of Athens. What an opportunity! As we follow this encounter we can learn so much as we try to reach our pagan culture for Christ today.
