Good Morning Talk on July 18, 2023 - "Ancient TED Talks" Part 1/2
Our theme this week is "Ancient TED Talks", TED representing the nonprofit informational talks viewed online and in person worldwide (Technology, Entertainment and Design). The Apostle Paul in Acts 17 is escorted to Athens, currently in Greece. He is by himself and begins to share the good news of Jesus and his resurrection. The philosophers in Athens are taken by this NEW message and ask him to speak at the city's high council (an ancient TED talk - lol). We look at this discussion and how the Greek society represented itself two thousand years ago and how mankind has changed in its 'modern' ideologies.

Today's shared verses ...
Acts 17:16-25
While Paul was waiting for them in Athens, he was deeply troubled by all the idols he saw everywhere in the city. He went to the synagogue to reason with the Jews and the God-fearing Gentiles, and he spoke daily in the public square to all who happened to be there. He also had a debate with some of the Epicurean and Stoic philosophers. When he told them about Jesus and his resurrection, they said, “What’s this babbler trying to say with these strange ideas he’s picked up?” Others said, “He seems to be preaching about some foreign gods.” Then they took him to the high council of the city. “Come and tell us about this new teaching,” they said. “You are saying some rather strange things, and we want to know what it’s all about.” (It should be explained that all the Athenians as well as the foreigners in Athens seemed to spend all their time discussing the latest ideas.)
