📖 In Acts 21 & 22, Paul walks boldly into Jerusalem knowing danger awaits. Despite urgent warnings, he’s determined to obey God’s call—even if it means chains and death. What follows is a violent mob, his arrest by Roman soldiers, and then… silence. Because Paul has something to say.

Instead of defending himself, Paul shares his story—how Jesus met him on the road to Damascus and changed everything. His courage in crisis reminds us that when persecution comes, our story is still the most powerful tool we’ve got.

➡️ Watch as Paul turns persecution into proclamation—and discover how your testimony can speak louder than your trials.

📖 Acts 20 is a chapter packed with emotion, miracles, and powerful teaching. Paul travels through Macedonia and Greece, preaching the gospel and encouraging believers. While in Troas, Paul preaches late into the night—and a young man named Eutychus falls asleep, falls out a window, and dies… only for Paul to raise him from the dead!

But the real heart of this chapter is Paul’s farewell speech to the Ephesian elders. He urges them to be shepherds of God’s flock, warns them of coming wolves, and reminds them of his example of selfless ministry. His words—and tears—are a masterclass in bold leadership and eternal perspective.

➡️ Don’t miss Paul’s powerful final words. This is a blueprint for every believer who wants to finish the race well.

📖 In Acts 19, Paul arrives in Ephesus and finds disciples who had not yet received the Holy Spirit. After baptizing them in the name of Jesus, miracles begin to break out—including healings and evil spirits being cast out. When some try to imitate Paul’s authority without faith, the demons reply, “Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize—but who are you?

⠀

Many in the city repent, publicly burn their books of magic, and turn to Christ. But not everyone is thrilled—the gospel challenges the idol trade, and a full-blown riot erupts in the city. Acts 19 shows us what happens when the truth confronts culture.

📖 Acts 16 is full of powerful moments and divine appointments. Paul meets Timothy and brings him along as they revisit and strengthen the churches. The Spirit redirects them away from Asia and instead leads them to Macedonia, where the gospel first reaches Europe. Lydia, a wealthy businesswoman, becomes the first convert in Philippi. But things turn dramatic when Paul and Silas are beaten and imprisoned after casting out a spirit. Their prayers and singing in jail are interrupted by an earthquake that sets them free—and leads to the conversion of the Philippian jailer and his entire household.

⠀

This chapter reminds us that opposition often opens doors for greater opportunity. God is always working—even in chains.

📖 Is it grace or works? The early church faced that very question—and their answer still shapes how we follow Jesus today.

In Acts 15, a serious debate erupts over whether Gentile believers must follow Jewish customs to be saved. Some insisted on circumcision and strict obedience to the law. But Peter reminds them: God saved both Jews and Gentiles by grace—through faith—not by works.

Still, the council doesn’t dismiss obedience. Instead, they offer guidance for the new believers that helps them walk in unity and holiness. The message is clear: salvation is by grace, but that grace transforms how we live.

🔥 Key Moments in Acts 15:

🔹 Heated debate over salvation and circumcision

🔹 Peter boldly defends God’s grace

🔹 James offers a Spirit-led solution rooted in wisdom

🔹 The church unites around truth and love

🔹 Paul and Barnabas part ways—Silas joins the mission

This chapter reminds us that true faith isn’t about earning God’s favor—but it does produce action, obedience, and a life that reflects the One we follow.

📖 Acts 14 is the definition of emotional whiplash—one minute you're being praised, the next you're dodging rocks!

Paul and Barnabas continue their mission, preaching in Iconium and Lystra. They perform a miracle, healing a man who had never walked. The crowd goes wild—like really wild—and starts worshiping them as Greek gods. But when Paul and Barnabas shut that down, things turn ugly.

A mob shows up, stones Paul, and leaves him for dead. But he gets up, walks back into the city, and keeps going. That’s next-level boldness.

🔥 Key Moments in Acts 14:

🔹 Paul and Barnabas preach boldly in multiple cities

🔹 A crippled man is miraculously healed

🔹 The crowd tries to worship them as Zeus and Hermes

🔹 Paul is stoned and left for dead—but gets up

🔹 They appoint elders and strengthen churches

This chapter shows the highs and lows of ministry—and reminds us that boldness often comes at a cost.

📖 Acts 12 & 13 show us that no prison, no king, and no doubt can stop God’s mission.

Herod goes on a rampage—he kills James and imprisons Peter. But while the church prays, God sends an angel to bust Peter out of jail. The guards are stunned. Herod is furious… and shortly after, he’s struck down for stealing God’s glory.

Then, the scene shifts: the church in Antioch is fasting and praying when the Holy Spirit calls out Paul and Barnabas for a mission. And just like that, the first missionary journey begins. Paul steps into his calling, preaches with boldness, and the Gospel spreads like wildfire.

🔥 Key Moments in Acts 12–13:

🔹 James is martyred and Peter is arrested

🔹 An angel rescues Peter from prison

🔹 Herod is struck down by God

🔹 The church in Antioch sends out Paul & Barnabas

🔹 The Gospel begins to spread to Gentile cities

These chapters remind us that when the church prays and obeys, God moves in power.

📖 Acts 11 is about challenge and change—when God moves, not everyone is ready for it.

After returning from Cornelius’ house, Peter faces criticism from Jewish believers. They’re shocked that he ate with Gentiles and that the Holy Spirit had been given to them. But Peter doesn’t back down. He walks them through what God showed him, and eventually, they can’t argue with the truth: “God has granted repentance that leads to life—even to the Gentiles!”

Meanwhile, the Gospel spreads to Antioch, and something powerful happens. For the first time, believers are called Christians, and Barnabas and Saul begin a season of ministry together that will shape the future of the church.

🔥 Key Moments in Acts 11:

🔹 Peter explains his vision and visit with Cornelius

🔹 The Jewish believers realize salvation is for all

🔹 The Gospel spreads to Antioch

🔹 Believers are called “Christians” for the first time

🔹 Barnabas recruits Saul to help teach new converts

This chapter reminds us that the Gospel doesn’t bow to tradition—it breaks barriers and transforms lives.
