Acts 19:1-10 // The Gospel in Ephesus

As we begin to follow Paul’s pivotal three years of ministry in Ephesus, we are reminded of the importance of yielding to the gracious revelation of truth by God. The alternative is a hardening of the heart, which produces disastrous results.

Acts 18:18-28 // The Eloquent Apollos

As Paul heads home to Antioch to end his second missionary journey, we are reminded to submit our daily lives, decisions, and plans to the Lord’s will.

Acts 18:9-17 // Comfort in Corinth

Despite things going well in Corinth, Paul begins to see a familiar pattern emerging that usually ends with him being beaten within an inch of his life or thrown in prison, and having to flee persecution before he is murdered. But the Lord comes to Paul as he sleeps, speaks encouragement, and intervenes to change the course of events.

Acts 18:1-8 // Rest & Revival in Corinth

Paul moves on to the city of Corinth, where God "shepherds" Paul by leading him into a season of rest before returning him to full-time ministry with wonderful results.

Acts 17:18-34 // Paul’s Areopagus Address

Paul finds himself on the Acropolis of Athens before the Areopagus - the city’s rulers and leading philosophers, who ask him to share the message he has been preaching in the agora (the city’s marketplace).

Acts 17:10-17 // The Berean Benchmark

After being forced to flee Thessalonica due to persecution, Paul moves on to Berea, where he encounters a synagogue of “noble” men and women who receive the Gospel “with eagerness”.

Acts 17:2-9 // The Necessarily Offensive Gospel

Once again, Paul’s powerful Gospel preaching evokes strong reactions both positively and negatively, bringing new souls into the Kingdom and stirring up a mob that seeks to drive him and Silas out of Thessalonica with the charge that they are “turning the world upside down.”

Acts 17:2-4 // Evangelism in Thessalonica

When Paul and Silas left Philippi, they made their way to Thessalonica. And they didn’t waste any time before they began sharing the Gospel with the people there! As we look back at how Paul evangelized in that city, we can gain some practical insights that will help us share the good news of Jesus wherever He has placed us today.
