Paul's Day/Jeremiah's Day/Our Day

Acts 19:20 So the word of the Lord was growing mightily and prevailing.

Paul's day was one of great advancement for the gospel throughout Asia.

Our day, at least in America, is not similar, although there are parts of the world where the gospel is growing mightily and prevailing (Asia, Iran, India, Africa, come to mind). I think of our day more along the lines of Jeremiah's day where there is great spiritual—not just apathy, but—opposition and darkness.  Nevertheless we press forward and proclaim God's message to the people of our time as Jeremiah did.
