Acts 20 February 8, 2026

Acts 20 describes Paul’s journey through Macedonia and Greece as he strengthens and encourages the churches. It includes the famous scene in Troas where Paul preaches late into the night and raises Eutychus after he falls from a window. The chapter ends with Paul’s emotional farewell to the Ephesian elders in Miletus, where he reflects on his ministry, warns them to guard the church, and entrusts them to God before parting in deep sorrow.

Acts 19 Pt3 February 1st, 2026

Acts 19:21–41 describes a major disturbance in Ephesus sparked by Paul’s ministry. As many people turn away from idol worship, local craftsmen—especially silversmiths who make shrines of Artemis—fear losing income and influence. This leads to a riot, with crowds shouting in defense of Artemis and dragging Paul’s companions into the theater. The chaos lasts for hours until a city clerk calms the crowd, warns them of legal consequences, and dismisses the assembly, restoring order.

Acts 19 Pt2 January 18, 2026

Acts 19:11–20 describes how God performed extraordinary miracles through the apostle Paul in Ephesus, leading many to be healed and freed from evil spirits. When some Jewish exorcists unsuccessfully tried to use Jesus’ name without true faith, the incident spread fear and respect for the Lord. As a result, many believers confessed their practices, renounced magic, and publicly burned their scrolls, showing the powerful impact of the gospel and the growth of God’s word.

Acts 19 Pt1 January 11, 2026

Acts 19:1–10 describes Paul’s arrival in Ephesus, where he meets some disciples who had only received John the Baptist’s baptism. After explaining the full message of Jesus, Paul baptizes them in the name of the Lord Jesus, and they receive the Holy Spirit. Paul then teaches boldly in the synagogue for three months. When opposition arises, he withdraws and continues daily discussions in the lecture hall of Tyrannus. This ministry lasts two years, resulting in the widespread spread of the gospel throughout the province of Asia.

Acts 18 January 4, 2026

**Acts Chapter 18** describes the apostle Paul’s ministry in **Corinth** and **Ephesus**. Paul meets **Aquila and Priscilla**, works with them as a tentmaker, and preaches in the synagogue. When many Jews oppose his message, Paul turns his focus to the Gentiles, and several people—including **Crispus**, the synagogue leader—believe. God encourages Paul to keep preaching, and he stays in Corinth for a year and a half. After facing false accusations that are dismissed by the Roman proconsul **Gallio**, Paul travels on, briefly ministers in Ephesus, and leaves Aquila and Priscilla there, setting the stage for further growth of the early church.
