Episode notes
Faithfulness Over Fast Results
- Paul models patient, long-term faithfulness rather than instant fame or rapid results.
- Joby Martin argues faithfulness with small responsibilities invites God to entrust greater things.
Prove You Can Steward Little First
- Be faithful with the small responsibilities God has given you before asking for more responsibility.
- Ask honestly: if you were God, would you trust yourself with more influence or resources?
Jerusalem Council Settles The Issue
- Joby recounts the Jerusalem Council in Acts 15 where Peter, Paul, and James resolved the circumcision dispute.
- James stops the debate by asking why they would make faith difficult for new believers.
