IT’S STILL WORTH IT
Acts 17:1–10 / 1 Thessalonians 3:6–9
Some seeds take longer to sprout. Some seasons feel like silence. But just because it looks fruitless doesn’t mean it’s faithless. Paul and Silas didn’t just preach—they planted. And while resistance rose, so did a remnant. The Gospel didn’t fail—it just took root underground.
This sermon reminds us that obedience isn’t measured by applause but by impact. You may not see the harvest yet, but heaven sees the sowing. Jason’s house was attacked, but his heart was aligned. Timothy was sent to check on the church, but he returned with a report of revival. What looked useless was actually underestimated.
The question isn’t “Did it work?”—it’s “Did I walk in faith?” Because faith isn’t proven by results—it’s revealed in resilience. Evangelism isn’t about being eloquent—it’s about being available. It’s not about who left—it’s about who stayed. And sometimes, the ones who stay become the ones who shake the world.
So keep planting. Keep preaching. Keep showing up. You’re not just turning the world upside down—you’re turning hearts toward heaven. The Gospel doesn’t need help—it needs heralds. And you don’t need to be famous to be faithful.
Because of you, someone stayed. Because of you, someone believed. Because of you, someone saw Jesus.
