Acts Chapter 18
Paul's second missionary journey is ending. He arrives in Corinth and meets Aquila and his wife Priscilla who become his fellow workers. After teaching in the synagogue, the Jews opposed him, so he goes out to the Gentiles. Priscilla and Aquila meet a Jew named Apollos whom they then taught him a more accurate picture of who Jesus was, and then he went on and helped all who believed in Jesus Christ and the salvation that comes from grace.

While Peter and John were going to the Temple to pray, they meet a man who was lame from birth, panhandling at the Temple gate. While they did not have money, they gave him more than anyone could imagine. We discuss how Peter then uses this moment to declare many truths to unbelieving Jews, using this man, along with Old Testament prophecies, as evidence.

Just before Paul began the first of his three missionary journeys, he and others at the Church of Antioch were worshiping and fasting, when Holy Spirit set Paul and Barnabas apart on a special mission to the gentile cities. They journeyed throughout much of the Mediterranean coastline of modern day Turkey with John-Mark – a helper who would later be the cause of Paul and Barnabas’s separation in Acts 15.
This first missionary journey is unique because Paul and Barnabas taught the Jews first and then the Gentiles (later on Paul would focus primarily to teaching the Gentiles) and tells of Paul and Barnabas’s response to a sorcerer who tried to lead a Roman Governor away from Christianity.
What isn’t unique however, is how the Jewish leadership stirred up persecution against Paul expelling him and Barnabas from the region.
