We left Paul preaching in our last lesson to governor Festus, King Agrippa, his sister Bernice and some other people. In this lesson we will see how the conviction of the Holy Spirit became so intense that governor Festus interrupted Paul's message. This is an awesome account, so don't miss it.
The focus of this lesson is on Paul sermon to a crowd of nonbelievers that consisted of a king, a governor, military officers and city officials. There are some powerful truths that come out in this lesson.
We will study roughly two years in the life of Paul in this lesson. He was in jail in Caesarea under governor Felix, who was recalled to Rome to face charges of corruption. Festus became the new governor and Paul was left in prison by the departing Felix. Now that Festus was the new ruler, it doesn't take long for him to have to deal with Paul.
Paul's journey to testify before the Roman governor Felix is the focus of this lesson. We will see truth confronting lies and the power of a godly testimony.
Paul was being beaten by a mob of religious zealots, most of them didn't know what the disturbance was all about. The Romans saw the riot breaking out and the Tribune entered into the chaos to put an end to it. He ended up rescuing Paul. This lesson gets into this account of Paul and there are some wonderful lessons that we can learn from it.
This is a challenging sermon on how the church is to be confronting the culture we live in with the true Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Paul's persecution that breaks out against him in the Temple in Jerusalem is the focus of this lesson. This begins the long journey of persecution that eventually lead to his execution by Nero in Rome. We see in this account a total contrast between the compassion of Paul, a follower of the true Messiah, and the religious men that were filled with hate and self-righteousness. This is an exciting lesson.
In this lesson we will study the beginning of Paul's long persecution and imprisonment that will ultimately lead to his execution by Emperor Nero. There are some important truths that need to be understood that we will dig into in this lesson, so don't miss it.
This lesson begins by continuing the account of Paul's visit with the elders of Ephesus. Here we will get a look at the profound love they had for each other.

There are some wonderful truths that we will dig into in this lesson, so don't miss it.
Paul is spending some time in a neighboring city to meet with the elders of Ephesus. This would be the last time he would see their faces in this life, so it was an emotional visit. Listen to this man of God's appeal to those church leaders because he was pouring out his heart to give them some final admonishments. This is a good, practical lesson that is also very challenging.
Acts chapter 20 opens with Paul leaving Ephesus after Demetrius, a silversmith that manufactured idols, had started a riot in an effort to silence Paul either by death, imprisonment or expulsion from the city. The silversmiths had taken a major decline in their income from the sale of idols because of the revival that swept the city after Paul began preaching the Gospel. After Paul left Ephesus he made his way to Corinth, Greece for a third visit. After this be began heading to Jerusalem, hoping...
In the portion of Acts 19 that we are studying we will see the results of authentic revival that took place in Ephesus and the persecution that came about because of it. This is a powerful lesson, and the truths found in it, we need to apply to our lives.
The main account in this lesson is extremely interesting. Paul goes to Ephesus and during his time there seven sons of a man named Sceva started a business casting demons out of people. Their business takes an interesting turn that the seven brothers weren't expecting and the Lord used it in a marvelous way.
We will meet in this lesson Apollos, who was a dynamic preacher that effectively ministered to fellow Jews by proving that Jesus is the promised Messiah. We will also see what happens when Paul, on his third missionary journey, ends up in Ephesus. This is a powerful account that we need to understand how it applies to us.
In this portion of Acts we will find Paul ministering in Corinth. He stays there for roughly two years and has much fruit from it. Yet in spite of his powerful ministry opposition arose and the people were hindered by unbelief. There are some powerful lesson we will go over in this study.
In this lesson we find Paul preaching at the Areopagus in Athens, Greece. This is where the supreme court of that city met, and the philosophers used it to debate. Though it doesn't seem that Paul saw revival break out in Athens, a man of great distinction that sat upon the supreme court became a follower of Jesus. This is a great, historical story.
Truth had fallen in the streets of our nation, in the homes and even in many churches. Learn why this is happening and what you can do to protect yourself and your loved ones. This is a very important message for our day. I posted this sermon because I was preaching in the Netherlands when the podcast was released. Hope you enjoy it.
The last thing Jesus said before He died on the cross was "It is Finished." This sermon is an examination into what Jesus meant by that statement. It's a powerful truth that can profoundly impact our lives if we let it. I posted this sermon in place of the regular teaching we have been doing on the Book of Acts because I was ministering in the Netherlands at the time this podcast was released. Hope you enjoy it.

This lesson is on Paul and Silas' ministry to Philippi and Thessalonica and how those 2 cities were shaken. The God of the Book of Acts is the God of today. He hasn't changed and the revivals of old are prophesies of what He wants to do again. May this lesson stir your heart and soul.
Paul is used to cast a demon out of a girl who was a slave. Then the slave owners turned on Paul and Silas and had them publicly stripped naked, beaten with rods and then thrown in prison. They had a very busy day to say the least. This is an exciting lesson.

This lesson from Acts 15 is about the first church council that convened to settle a major dispute that rose up in the early church. This is an important event because it shows how the early church dealt with problems, and by working through them, were able to clarify what is sound doctrine.
In this lesson we will study the revival that came to Lystra and the persecution that broke out, where Paul was stoned to death. Some believers gathered around him and he came back to life. Then Paul and Barnabas went to Derbe and the revival spread through that city. The two apostles then traveled to their home church in Antioch, Syria. This was a very exciting time for Paul and Barnabas.
Paul and Barnabas were forced to move their missionary work to Iconium because of persecution. In that ancient city in Asia Minor revival broke out, but eventually they were forced to leave there because of persecution. From there they went to Lystra and Derbe where the revival spread. In Lystra the Lord healed a man that was born a cripple and had never walked. Zeus was the patron deity of the city and the people thought that Barnabas was Zeus and Paul was Hermes. That made for one exciting mee...
This is a continuation of the study examining the message Paul preached in a synagogue in Asia Minor. This was a soul stirring, mind shocking sermon that simultaneously produced authentic revival and persecution. This happened in Antioch of Pisidia and this is where a major change came to the missionary work of Paul and Barnabas. Don't miss this teaching.
This is the very interesting account of the confrontation between Paul and Elymas, a sorcerer. This lesson also includes the account of the missionary team going from Cyprus to Asia minor where Mark abandons the brothers to go back to Jerusalem. This is a very challenging lesson.
