Paul and Barnabas head to Iconium where people are split in how they receive the word. When they are nearly killed for their message, they move on to Lystra. There’s a man there who Paul heals. That did it. No matter what Paul and Barnabas did, the people kept wanting to sacrifice to them as if they were gods. Crazy turn of events, tho; the Jews from the previous cities show up and convince the crowd instead to stone them. They mistake Paul for dead, but he revives and continues on to Derbe

“Normalize changing your mind’ is the positive version of “blown like grass in the wind.” The people are amazed by a healing, so their faith is shallow. Consequently they are easily moved: the people want to sacrifice to Paul. Then they want to kill him

That we would be steadfast and remember the reason for the hope that we have. That v15 would be an active reality moment by moment in our day. That we would turn from worthless things to the living God
