Acts 23:12-24:27 // Paul and Felix

An imminent assassination plot necessitates Paul being rushed out of Jerusalem by night under military escort. He is taken to the governor's mansion in Caesarea Maritima, where he is placed on trial before Felix. As Paul is afforded an opportunity to share the Gospel with Felix and his wife, Drusilla, we are reminded of the seriousness and urgency of responding to the conviction of the Holy Spirit.

Acts 22:22-23:11 // The Comfort of Christ

The Roman commander Claudius Lysias continues trying to figure out why the Jews in Jerusalem are so agitated by Paul. And in the midst of Paul's discouragement, a visit from Jesus teaches us about the nature of His supernatural comfort.

Acts 22:1-21 // Paul's Testimony

Paul responds to being brutally attacked in Jerusalem by sharing his testimony with those who had just tried to take his life. His testimony serves as an example of how Christians can share their testimony when God provides opportunities to do so. 

Acts 21:26-40 // A Riot in Jerusalem

Paul's attempts to appease the Jewish believers in Jerusalem backfire, as a riot breaks out on the Temple Mount and he has to be rescued by a Roman commander and over 200 soldiers. We'll also dig a little deeper into one of the central issues of the Christian life - our identity in Christ.

Acts 21:15-24 // Tension in Jerusalem

As Paul arrives in Jerusalem, he is greeted with the news that he has become a lightning rod of controversy as issues of culture, heritage, ethnicity, and traditions collide with the Gospel. We'll see Paul display incredible humility, as he pursues unity in the Church through the power of the love of Christ.

Acts 21:1-14 // Living on Mission, Together

Paul and his team are making their way to Jerusalem, and they get a lot of help along the way. There was a mission to fulfill and everyone played a part in getting the job done. In this message, we consider what it would look like today for the Church to live on mission together, as we see in the Book of Acts. 

Acts 21:1-14 // Paul's Journey to Jerusalem
