The elders at the church in Jerusalem convince the Apostle Paul to carry out tasks that are part of Jewish custom in order to debunk false rumors being spread about him that he was against Jewish tradition and was teaching other Jews to abolish the customs of Moses. Some have felt that Paul compromised on the truth of the gospel when giving in to this request. But is this the right conclusion? We answer that question in this episode.

What would you do if someone told you with certainty that the course that God was directing you to would lead to arrest and imprisonment? Would you change course, or would you continue in obedience? In Acts 21, we see the determination of the Apostle Paul in the face of upcoming hardship, as he expresses his willingness to suffer for the name of Jesus Christ.

This episode is of a sermon I preached on Ephesians 4:11-16 on New Years Day, 2017. In this passage, we see that all Christians are ministers and help in the growth of the body of Christ. We'll see what this looks like and why this is important as we unpack this passage.

In addition to staying the course in shepherding the church, pastors and elders are ones who stay the course in protecting the flock from false teaching and in ministering to the weak. This episode highlights the importance of these areas of ministry as we finish our examination of Acts 20.

The calling of pastors/shepherds/elders is no small one. In giving his farewell address to the Ephesian elders in Acts 20, Paul wants them to know this. In this episode, we discuss how the shepherding task is so important and how both the leaders and the laity should understand this position from a biblical point of view.

When trouble lies ahead, do we stay the course in completing the task that God has laid forth for us? Paul did, and he wanted the elders of Ephesus to follow his example. In this episode, we begin to examine the incredibly powerful words of the apostle as he gives his final farewell to the leaders in the Ephesian church in Acts 20.

When we think of the Apostle Paul, we think of someone who was a preacher of the gospel and the writer of much of the New Testament. But do we think of him along the lines of his encouragement of other Christians? In this episode, we take a look at this side of the great apostle.

When Jesus performed the miraculous catch of fish in Luke 5:1-11, He didn't do this just to show off. Learn how Jesus orchestrated such an event in order to put Peter in a position of service for the kingdom of God, and what that means for us today.

When the devil is defeated in one area, we can't expect him to accept defeat. In Acts 19, after his agenda backfires in one way, he attacks Paul in another way. See what attack happens as a result of the Word of God prevailing in the province of Asia, and how God protects Paul, His gospel, and the agenda of the kingdom.
