When life takes an unexpected turn, God is still at work. In Acts 28, Paul’s shipwreck doesn’t land him in Rome like planned—it lands him in Malta. In this message, we explore how Paul “blooms where he’s planted” through five practical responses: noticing the goodness of people around him, serving in simple ways, shaking off the enemy’s lies, stepping into Spirit-led opportunities, and leaning into the strength of Christian community. If you’re in a detour season—a “Malta” you didn’t choose—this sermon will help you find purpose, fruitfulness, and courage right where you are.
