A night vision changes the travel plans, a business leader opens her home, a slave girl finds freedom, and a hardened jailer melts into joy after midnight hymns shake a prison. Acts 16 isn’t just a chapter; it’s a vivid field guide to hearing the Spirit, removing barriers, and speaking the gospel with courage when pressure mounts.

We start with the tension around Timothy’s circumcision: not about earning salvation, but about clearing obstacles so skeptical communities can hear the message. From there, we unpack how the team discerns the Macedonian call—no theatrics, just thoughtful, prayerful agreement that aligns with Jesus’ mission. In Philippi, the gospel meets people where they live: Lydia, an influential seller of purple, whose heart the Lord opens; a demonized slave girl exploited for profit, delivered in a moment that costs her owners their revenue; and a Roman jailer who moves from despair to faith as Paul and Silas sing their way through pain and into a divine rescue.

We explore how providence threads through closed doors and sudden earthquakes, how integrity matters when Paul demands public accountability as a Roman citizen, and why household faith and hospitality become powerful engines for a young church. Expect practical takeaways on discerning the Spirit’s lead, praising God in the dark, using your home for mission, and sharing the gospel with the same clarity Paul offered: Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved.
