More believe including a number of prominent woman
After being beaten for their story Paul and Silas move on to another town and weren't deterred from sharing the story of Christ living, dying and rising again. Paul's reaction makes the story believable. Why would someone risk another beating or imprisonment for a lie! It's interesting who is believing the story; some Jews, Greeks and quite a few prominent women!
Lord Jesus, thank You for valuing women and thank You for the role women play in Christianity. A woman first realized You rose from the dead. Your Mother first encouraged You to perform a public miracle. We recently read about Lydia (Did she have some influence over the prominent women?). Jesus, in a male dominant world You chose to value women. Thank You.
