Changed From the Inside Out

What does real change actually look like? In this sermon, we trace one of the most dramatic transformations in Scripture—from Saul the persecutor to Paul the proclaimer—and discover how God works change that starts deep within and reshapes everything outward.

Beginning with the faithful witness of Stephen and moving through Saul’s encounter with the risen Christ, Acts shows us that no heart is too hard, no past too broken, and no person beyond the reach of God’s grace. True transformation isn’t about behavior modification—it’s about a new heart, a new direction, and a new purpose.

Whether you’re wrestling with your past, praying for someone who seems far from God, or longing for real spiritual renewal, this passage reminds us that God is still in the business of transforming lives.
