Paul said his imprisonment has given others the courage to preach the Gospel more boldly.
Everyone in the palace guard knew that Paul was in jail because of Christ. People were talking.
The Gospel was going out to people.
Instead of Paul's brothers hiding until times were safer, they became even bolder. This is God's work, for sure.
Chains in Christ makes me think of how nothing that happens to us can happen apart from God's will, so Paul knows it's ultimately going to be good.
These verses declare to me that God is sovereign and unstopable.
