Acts 16:16-40
All the characters in this passage are enslaved or imprisoned to various degrees. The only ones who seem truly free are those actually locked inside a prison cell. What's their secret?
The Kingdom of God
Acts 2:17-21 Matthew 6:9-10
What do we mean by the Kingdom of God and what does it mean for how we understand and experience the gifts of the Holy Spirit?
Partners in God's Mission
Acts 16:6-15
Caitlin asks how much of Paul’s mission throughout Asia and Greece was lead by God or, lead by Paul. How much of our serving God today should be waiting for him to lead us, and how much should be us making the first move?
Who is the Holy Spirit?
John 14-16; Ezekiel 37
The Holy Spirit is as much a person within the godhead as is the Father and the Son, and brings the presence of God closer to us than ever before.
Imperfect Leadership
Acts 15:36-16:5

Radical Resilience

Evangelism
Acts 13:44-14:7
Paul and Barnabas risked their lives to tell people about Jesus, over and over again. Some resisted, but to others, that introduction changed their lives. How good are we at introducing people to Jesus?
Word and Power
Acts 13: 4-43
Barnabas and Paul set out on their journey, preaching in synagogues and demonstrating the Kingdom. From Paul we can learn how to share Jesus in relevant ways to our hearers and by using "what we have in our hands".
