Now that Paul is in Ephesus, he has a battle before him. His primary tool—one in which he believes deeply—is the Word of Christ: the Good News. For two years, he taught, explained, and reasoned with both Jews and Gentiles—people he loved, many of whom were held in bondage by the dark spiritual realities rampant in Ephesus.

As Paul proclaims, Jesus moves in. And whenever Jesus moves into occupied enemy territory, there is a confrontation. From vivid miracles and a humorous "reverse exorcism" to the power of the Gospel to change lives once deeply enmeshed in the occult, this is an encouraging and powerful text. It shows us the real Jesus bringing real cleansing and renewal through the path of costly discipleship!
