Paul stood before Festus and Agrippa, his eyes filled with resolve. He had been accused by the Jews, but he knew his conscience was clear. Festus, the governor, and Agrippa, the king, listened intently as Paul began to speak. He recounted his life, from his zealous pursuit of Christians to his dramatic conversion on the road to Damascus. He spoke of the blinding light, the voice of Jesus, and the calling he had received to preach to the Gentiles. Paul’s words were passionate and sincere, as he defended not only his actions but the very faith that had transformed him. Agrippa, impressed by Paul’s testimony, remarked, “You almost persuade me to be a Christian.” Paul responded with hope, wishing not only Agrippa but everyone present could share in the faith he had found.
