This week Paul is dragged before the Sanhedrin, ordered struck by Ananias, and Jesus is with Paul in these dark moments. This will segue perfectly to our 2024 Advent series where we will hear the promise of "I am with you" to Issac, Jacob, Moses, and Joshua fulfilled in Immanuel, God with us.

In our text this week, Paul turns to the mob that just beat him, and rather than retaliate or attack, he graciously and respectfully shares the good news of Jesus and how encountering Jesus changed Paul's life. Though he is one of their own and shares the words of life, they still want to kill him. There is much to learn in this text from the examp…

This week, we look at Acts 21:17-26 and Paul's arrival in Jerusalem. It was an extremely volatile time according to historians.

This only increased th…

Our verse-by-verse study through the book of Acts this week focuses on Acts 21:1-16, but as Teaching Pastor Neal Ledbetter reminds us, "the message Paul received in Acts 20:22-23 and how he responded in verse 24 is important to keep in mind as we study our text this week. In Acts 21:1-16, the disciples receive the same word Paul did in Acts 20:22-2…

This week, we're looking at Paul's return to Ephesus and the "disciples" he encounters there. Are they disciples of Jesus? That ambiguity is likely Luke's point and why Paul asks the question about whether they have received the Holy Spirit. It should provide some good discussion on the outward evidence of faith. Also, it is an opportunity to discu…

This week we're looking at the last characters in Acts 16 -- the magistrates. When seen in light of the whole chapter, they're the only ones who ignore truth, presume their innocence, and yet stand condemned. We'll see how Paul and Silas respond to false accusation, how their response and innocence points to the gospel, and how they leverage their …

We're back in Acts this week and picking up with the third character in Acts 16, the jailer. While Lydia is religious and the slave girl is irreligious, the jailer sits somewhere in the middle as indifferent. All three stories have much to teach us about the power of the gospel and our own evangelism to different people in different circumstances.…
