Shocking Boldness

By most people’s standards, the disciples should have been scared after the experience of persecution they had just been through. Their boldness shocks us, but we shouldn’t be surprised when we listen to their prayer. They are confident in God and unconcerned about the troubles they face. It’s like those children who sit by the lion exhibit at the zoo. The lion wants to eat them, but the kids are completely unconcerned (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IpBXna8qtDQ).
