In this solo episode, part of the Acts Revisited series, Dallas walks through Acts 25 — why the same opposition to Paul keeps resurfacing under new leadership, discernment about what's actually worth reacting to in culture, how Paul's appeal to Caesar reflects wisdom rather than a lack of trust in God, and what his years of unresolved waiting teach about faithfulness.
