Do you want to grow spiritually – to be a stronger Christian? God will design a custom lesson plan to teach you that it is when you are weak that you are strong. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

The last few years of Paul’s life, and even his death, are somewhat of a controversy if not a mystery (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

What if you were literally chained to someone? That’s the situation Paul found himself in for two years in Rome (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

After two years of being held in protective custody Paul had appealed his case to the highest court and was finally Romeward bound (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Felix and Festus were Roman governors. Agrippa was a descendant of Herod the Great and was a Jewish ruler, consider king over his region.

Whenever Paul appeared before these rulers he preached the Gospel. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Paul had been assaulted, forcibly dragged down some stone stairs, and beaten by multiple assailants. He would be bruised, bloodied, disoriented. But still he desires to preach the Gospel to the very people who attacked him. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Paul decided to visit Jerusalem a fifth time – but along the way he was warned by prophets that chains and imprisonment awaited him there (Pastor Gene Pensiero)

Just when you think you’ve got ministry figured-out, God changes things up on you.

On his second missionary journey the Holy Spirit directed Paul away from Asia because God wanted him to spend most of his time in Europe.

On his third missionary journey most of Paul’s time was spent in Asia, in the city of Ephesus.

That wasn’t the only change. What scholars call the “third missionary journey” is more like an interim pastorate than a pioneering missions effort. (Pastor Gene Pensiero)
