Paul has preached the Gospel in Ephesus, and his message has changed the entire city. An uproar ensues as people discard and abandon their once-treasured idols made by human hands to fully follow Jesus. As a result, those who made a profitable trade of manufacturing silver shrines for the goddess Artemis have suddenly lost their lucrative businesses. A silversmith named Demetrius incites a massive riot against Paul and his companions. In short, the city is in upheaval. What does this biblical account reveal to us as followers of Jesus today?
