The Sanhedrin studies two uneducated Galilean fishermen who will not stop preaching resurrection, and reaches the only available explanation: they took note that these men had been with Jesus.

Courage, in Acts, is a symptom of company. Meanwhile 1 Kings opens with a succession crisis solved by a promise kept. Read today asking what your life makes people take note of.
