This week we see Paul's time in Ephesus come to an abrupt close with a riot triggered by the changed behavior of the believers in the area. This story gives us many insights into the culture of this thriving Greco-Roman city and the way Paul worked within it. It also provides a snapshot of Paul's time in Ephesus which included both great success and oppressive trouble. Join us as we look at this story and our own stories which are often a mix of joy and sorrow.

Special Guest: Tom Waltz.

As we crawl closer to Halloween, we discuss witchcraft in the early church during this week's episode.

The church in Ephesus is flourishing and the gospel-centered lives of the disciples there are beginning to make an impact on the surrounding culture. So much so that some see an opportunity to tap into the Jesus Movement to line their own pockets, including seven brothers all in the same trade: exorcism. But what happens when they try to use the power of Jesus to serve themselves? Join us for "The Sons" from Acts 19:11-20 to find out!

What do tyrannical teachers, coffee shops, and the church have to do with each other? We cover this, and more, during this week's episode.

Though the gospel message has been authenticated and a church is beginning to take root and grow, the Way of Jesus still comes under attack. But with favorable support from Greeks nearby, Paul works so long and so effectively in Ephesus that Luke can say, without irony, that "all Asia" heard the gospel. What about us? And Indianapolis? Join us for "The Hall" from Acts 19:8-10 as this short passage inspires us to walk the way of Jesus for the sake of those wandering without Him!

So, what does knowing Jesus actually mean? We cover this, and more, during this week's episdoe.

Last week we met Apollos; this week he's moved on from Ephesus. And when Paul arrives there, he runs into a dozen of Apollos's "half-converts," men who have repented, but not yet believed. What happens when Paul finishes the story for them? Join us for "The Baptism" from Acts 19:1-7 as once again the gospel message is confirmed in people's lives!

We time travel and answer a few questions from a passage that was preached a few weeks ago, and cover questions from this week's text: Acts 18:24-28.

Though the gospel has not yet taken root in Ephesus, there's a witness to Jesus there: someone we've never met before, named Apollos. But he only knows half the story! He's helping people move toward Jesus, he can't get them all the way to Jesus. What about us? Are we just like Apollos? Join us for "The Teacher" from Acts 18:24-28 to wrestle with this question for yourself!
