In this sermon from Acts 9:18–42, Pastor Matt unpacks the big idea that God develops who He calls — and that calling may be immediate, but preparation is a process. Drawing on the hidden years of Saul's life, Pastor Matt challenges the congregation to stop despising their development seasons, stay faithful even when progress feels slow, expect resistance without retreating, and get connected with others rather than trying to go it alone. Just as Saul needed a Barnabas, every believer needs people in their corner — and needs to be that person for someone else.
