A Painful Path: Misunderstandings & Accommodations (Acts 21:17-26) | Pastor Mike Fabarez
When fellow believers sincerely misunderstand and even slander you, the godly response is neither retaliation nor withdrawal but to weather the pain, seek to please both God and people, and flex on secondary (non-doctrinal) matters out of love, following Paul's example in submitting to James's request in Jerusalem.
