These chapters show the gospel colliding with the power structures, idols, and economies of the ancient world. In Ephesus, Paul’s ministry becomes so influential that it threatens the livelihood of idol-makers, sparking a massive riot. We see disciples growing in maturity, false teaching confronted, miracles validating the message, and the Word of God spreading with force. As Paul prepares to go to Jerusalem, he demonstrates a remarkable determination to follow God’s will—even when warned that suffering awaits.
