Talk 3:
In the Belly of the Beast
We are now in Talk 3 of our Feast series Depths of Mercy.
Titled In the Belly of the Beast, Talk 3 centres on the key message There are blessings at the bottom.
People have known this a long time ago.
In the 14th century, Italian poet Dante Alighieri wrote The Divine Comedy, and in his masterpiece, he said, “The path to paradise begins in hell.”
Meaning? Sometimes, a person needs to hit rock bottom before he can even start climbing out of his pit. He needs to be brought to a place where he has no alternatives. Once there, he realizes his pride vanishes, his stubbornness evaporates, his deafness is healed, and for the first time in a long while, he starts listening.

The apostles and elders, in agreement with the whole church, decided to choose representatives and to send them to Antioch with Paul and Barnabas. The ones chosen were Judas, who was called Barsabbas,
