شرح للأطفال
Imagine you have a friend who wants to go on an adventure, but everyone is scared something bad might happen. Your friend says, 'Don't worry about me! I'm ready for whatever comes my way.' Paul was like that friend, telling his friends not to be sad because he wanted to do what Jesus asked him to do, even if it meant getting in trouble.
