Challenges and Persecution in the Kingdom of Faith with Samuel Dixon | Acts

What happens when persecution becomes purpose? What if displacement is actually divine positioning? In Episode 33 of Wisdom Unwrapped, we sit with Port Harcourt–based businessman and social entrepreneur, Samuel Dixon, as we study Acts 11:19–30 and unpack how trials, persecution, and global realities can become catalysts for impact in the marketplace and the gospel. Samuel shares his powerful personal journey—from earning a degree in Oil and Gas, to venturing into business, and how a life-altering kidnapping and robbery in 2022 reshaped his purpose, faith, and vision. Together with hosts Abibo Berepele, Hope Swithin, and Favourite Henry, we explore what it means to live out the gospel with excellence, love, and intentionality in today’s world. This episode connects biblical persecution with modern-day realities like the Japa movement, marketplace influence, and the responsibility of Christians to carry the gospel wherever life scatters them. ⸻ ⏱️ Episode Timestamps 00:00 – Introduction 03:55 – Samuel Dixon’s journey 06:05 – Wisdom on nicheing down vs being multifaceted 11:23 – Dealing with persecution in the marketplace 20:21 – Bible study (Acts 11:19–30) 34:05 – The gospel and modern-day realities 50:10 – Supporting persecuted Nigerian Christians 54:33 – Key takeaways & closing ⸻ ✨ Key Conversations in This Episode • Should Christians niche down or embrace being multifaceted? • Understanding true persecution vs growth-provoking adversity • How Acts 11 shows persecution as a tool for gospel expansion • The Japa movement as modern-day scattering for kingdom influence • Excellence, love, and conduct as tools for marketplace ministry • Why preparation in the Word is essential for every believer • Supporting persecuted Christians in Nigeria and beyond ⸻ 📌 Scripture Focus Acts 11:19–30 – When persecution scattered the believers, the gospel multiplied. ⸻ 🎙️ About Wisdom Unwrapped Wisdom Unwrapped is a faith-based conversation platform exploring Christianity, culture, relationships, leadership, and real-life application of Scripture—helping believers live with clarity, conviction, and purpose. ⸻ 👉 Don’t forget to LIKE, SHARE, and SUBSCRIBE 🔔 Turn on notifications so you never miss an episode 💬 Share your biggest takeaway in the comments Join our Whatsapp channel https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029Varn... #WisdomUnwrapped #Acts11 #SamuelDixon #ChristianPodcast #FaithInTheMarketplace #ChristianEntrepreneur #PersecutionAndPurpose #JapaMovement #GospelInAction #NigerianChristians #BibleStudy #KingdomInfluence #FaithAndBusiness #ModernChristianity h
