So Paul says women shouldn't teach a man. And yet he worked with Aquila and Priscilla on his team in Corinth. So what did he mean? Let's find out together as we read 1 Timothy 2:1-13 and Genesis 3:1-19.

Priscilla and Aquila were ordinary church members who understood they had one life to leverage for the glory of Jesus. Their example gives us a picture of the normal Christian life: they were on mission together, lived with their anchors and sails up, were “all in” with the church, and made disciples. The invitation is not to settle for a comfortable version of Christianity, but to surrender our lives to Jesus and experience the joy, purpose, and abundant life found in following him.

Who were Priscilla and Aquila? In this episode, Emma Dotter unpacks the ministry of Priscilla and Aquila in Acts 18:1-28. She explores questions like, “Why is Priscilla sometimes named before Aquila?,” and “How is this a picture of husband and wives doing ministry together?” Priscilla and Aquila weren't focused on building individual platforms, they were building God's kingdom. // ADDITIONAL VERSES MENTIONED: 1 Corinthians 12: 4; 1 Corinthians 12: 7 // RESOURCES FOR FURTHER STUDY: Interested in serving with Join The Journey?

Keeping us down is impossible because we're UNSTOPPABLE with the gospel. Unstoppable Volume 5 is part 5 in a study through the book of Acts where we are getting a front row seat on how to spread the gospel like the early church. In this message, Pastor Andy will teach through Acts 18:18-28 which describes the end of Paul's second missionary journey, his brief stop in Ephesus with Priscilla and Aquila, his return to Antioch, and the introduction of an eloquent speaker named Apollos. Learn the key take away of this passage on how we can all grow in our faith together and not separately.

In Apollos, Priscilla, and Aquila, we see God advancing His kingdom through people withdiverse backgrounds, gifts, roles, and opportunities—each acting, teaching, learning,encouraging, and going. However, it's not just their own agency: God remains the oneleading by His Spirit. Because Jesus has saved us by grace and made us His people, we arefreed from both pride and passivity: we can receive the gifts He has given us, learn fromone another, and faithfully participate in the work His Spirit is doing to build the Kingdom ofGod in the hearts of men and women and children.

1 Corinthians 16:15–24 Now I urge you, brothers—you know that the household of Stephanas were the first converts in Achaia, and that they have devoted themselves to the service of the saints— 16 be subject to such as these, and to every fellow worker and laborer. 17 I rejoice at the coming of Stephanas and Fortunatus and Achaicus, because they have made up for your absence, 18 for they refreshed my spirit as well as yours. Give recognition to such people. 19 The churches of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Prisca, together with the church in their house, send you hearty greetings in the Lord. 20 All the brothers send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss. 21 I, Paul, write this greeting with my own hand. 22 If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come! 23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you. 24 My love be with you all in Christ Jesus. Amen.CONSIDER HOW TO LOVE THE SAINTS IN CHRIST LOVE DEVOTED TO SERVING THE SAINTS OF CHRIST (V15-18)  LOVE THROUGH GREETING THE SAINTS OF CHRIST  (V19-20) LOVE POURS OUT OF THE LOVE OF CHRIST. (V21-24) 

Aquila and Priscilla demonstrate what it means to be a unifying force for God, both in their marriage and in their relationships with the broader church. Despite persecution, displacement, inconvenience, and risk, they trusted God, welcomed others, sacrificed for ministry, and opened their home to build community. Their example challenges Christians today to pursue unity through love, hospitality, truth, sacrifice, and a commitment to living as one body in Christ.

Keeping us down is impossible because we're UNSTOPPABLE with the gospel. Unstoppable Volume 5 is part 5 in a study through the book of Acts where we are getting a front row seat on how to spread the gospel like the early church. In this message, Zach Bartmer will teach through Acts 18:1-17 which goes into detail about Paul's ministry in Corinth. Learn how Paul teams up with tentmakers Aquila and Priscilla as they face fierce Jewish opposition. Through all of this, the Lord appeared to Paul in a night vision, telling him not to be afraid and assuring him of safety, which prompted him to advance the gospel even more confidently and boldly.

1 Corinthians 16:13-14, 19-2413 Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong.14 Do everything in love.{,,,]19 The churches in the province of Asia send you greetings. Aquila and Priscilla greet you warmly in the Lord, and so does the church that meets at their house.20 All the brothers and sisters here send you greetings. Greet one another with a holy kiss.21 I, Paul, write this greeting in my own hand.22 If anyone does not love the Lord, let that person be cursed! Come, Lord!23 The grace of the Lord Jesus be with you.24 My love to all of you in Christ Jesus. Amen.

This week Joel walked us through Acts 18, where Paul arrives alone in the loud, chaotic boomtown of Corinth by his own admission scared, in weakness and fear and trembling. He showed us the three gifts God gives frightened people: friends in Priscilla and Aquila who made sure Paul wasn't afraid alone, a promise in the night vision that "I am with you," and the assurance that God had already gone ahead of him, claiming many people in that city as His own before Paul had met a single one. We were left with the question of who the many people are that God already has in Nashville, still out there in the schools, job sites, recovery rooms, and shelters, and the reminder that when we're scared, God's got it.Support the show

July 1, 2026 - Wednesday Bible Class In this episode we study Aquila (Acts 18) and his wife Priscilla, exploring their role alongside Paul and their influence across Corinth, Ephesus, and Rome. David builds on recent teaching about Apollos, references contributions from Dale, and promises a short, pre-recorded segment from Neil on-site in Ephesus. Using Acts 18 and related New Testament passages (1 Corinthians, Romans, 2 Timothy), the talk surveys biblical facts about Aquila and Priscilla and draws practical lessons for believers today. Topics covered include: Aquila's background as a Jew from Pontus who fled Rome under Claudius, his trade as a tentmaker and partnership with Priscilla, Paul's year-and-a-half ministry in Corinth while working with them, and their decision to travel with Paul to Ephesus and remain there to strengthen the church. The episode highlights how their home became a meeting place for congregations and how their hospitality and industry supported ministry work. Key moments discussed are Priscilla and Aquila's tactful correction and mentoring of Apollos—listening first, taking him aside, and teaching the “way” more accurately—and the theological details implied by those episodes (the role of baptism, belief in Jesus, the work of the Holy Spirit, and entrance into the kingdom of God). The speaker also draws attention to scriptural references showing the couple's ongoing influence: house church leadership, greetings in Paul's letters, and Paul's gratitude for their service and willingness to risk for his life. Takeaway lessons emphasize partnership in marriage and ministry, being open to discussing faith at work, the courage to both go and stay for the sake of the gospel, the importance of tactful and knowledgeable correction, and the power of hospitality and local leadership. The episode closes with practical reflections for contemporary Christians and a promised visual clip from Ephesus to bring the biblical scenes to life.   Duration 42:44

Drop us a note about the podcast. “Let each generation tell its children of your mighty acts.” That line from Psalm 145 isn't poetry we admire and move past. I treat it like a warning light and a mission statement. If we stop telling the truth about God, His goodness, and His standards, something else will teach our kids instead, and it rarely leads them toward peace, courage, or wisdom.From there, I pivot into a hard headline and the claims people make about immigration, violence, and moral responsibility. I know this part will challenge some listeners, but I'd rather speak plainly than hide behind comfortable words. Then we slow down and get grounded again in Scripture: a marriage reading from Song of Solomon that reminds us the Bible speaks honestly about desire inside covenant, and Acts 18 with Paul, Priscilla, and Aquila, where faith shows up in daily work, hospitality, and bold witness.We also talk about antisemitism, Israel, and the spiritual conflict behind many modern narratives. To connect the dots to American history and America's Christian heritage, I share a Medal of Honor spotlight and a line from Joseph Warren after Lexington and Concord: “We determined to die or be free.” Finally, we look at presidential oaths and Proverbs passages that point to accountability before God, and I close with prayer and a call to turn back to Jesus Christ.If you care about the Bible, a Christian worldview, and the future of the country, listen through to the end, then subscribe, share this with a friend, and leave a review so more people can find the show.#JosephWarren#ChristianNation#AmericanRevolution Support the showThe American Soul Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/1791934/subscribeCountryside Book Serieshttps://www.amazon.com/Countryside-Book-J-T-Cope-IV-ebook/dp/B00MPIXOB2 America's Christian Heritage Podcasthttps://www.buzzsprout.com/2622483

Paul arrives in Corinth tired and apparently discouraged, and God meets him through ordinary friends and ordinary work sewing tents before any vision comes. We also meet Priscilla and Aquila, a married couple who quietly pull a gifted preacher aside and fill in what his theology was missing. Not everyone in the kingdom stands on a stage; much of the work that matters happens at a kitchen table. This chapter is good news for anyone who has wondered whether their behind-the-scenes service counts.  The Rev. John Shank, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Edwardsville, IL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Acts 18:1-28. To learn more about Trinity in Edwardsville, visit trinitylutheranministries.org. The book of Acts picks up where the Gospels leave off. Jesus has risen. He has ascended. And now what? Acts answers that question. Luke tells the story of how the Holy Spirit built the Church from a handful of frightened disciples in Jerusalem into a movement that reached Rome itself. Along the way, you get Pentecost, the first sermons, the first martyrs, the conversion of Paul, the first church councils, shipwrecks, riots, and the persistent, stubborn work of God through Word and Sacrament even when His people didn't have a plan. If you've ever wondered how we got from Easter morning to the Church you sit in today, this is the book. Tune in for this new series on Thy Strong Word with Pastor Phil Booe and guest pastors as we open up the Book of Acts.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

I commend to you our sister Phoebe, a servant of the church at Cenchreae, 2 that you may welcome her in the Lord in a way worthy of the saints, and help her in whatever she may need from you, for she has been a patron of many and of myself as well.3 Greet Prisca and Aquila, my fellow workers in Christ Jesus, 4 who risked their necks for my life, to whom not only I give thanks but all the churches of the Gentiles give thanks as well. 5 Greet also the church in their house. Greet my beloved Epaenetus, who was the first convert to Christ in Asia. 6 Greet Mary, who has worked hard for you. 7 Greet Andronicus and Junia, my kinsmen and my fellow prisoners. They are well known to the apostles, and they were in Christ before me. 8 Greet Ampliatus, my beloved in the Lord. 9 Greet Urbanus, our fellow worker in Christ, and my beloved Stachys. 10 Greet Apelles, who is approved in Christ. Greet those who belong to the family of Aristobulus. 11 Greet my kinsman Herodion. Greet those in the Lord who belong to the family of Narcissus. 12 Greet those workers in the Lord, Tryphaena and Tryphosa. Greet the beloved Persis, who has worked hard in the Lord. 13 Greet Rufus, chosen in the Lord; also his mother, who has been a mother to me as well. 14 Greet Asyncritus, Phlegon, Hermes, Patrobas, Hermas, and the brothers who are with them. 15 Greet Philologus, Julia, Nereus and his sister, and Olympas, and all the saints who are with them. 16 Greet one another with a holy kiss. All the churches of Christ greet you.17 I appeal to you, brothers, to watch out for those who cause divisions and create obstacles contrary to the doctrine that you have been taught; avoid them. 18 For such persons do not serve our Lord Christ, but their own appetites, and by smooth talk and flattery they deceive the hearts of the naive. 19 For your obedience is known to all, so that I rejoice over you, but I want you to be wise as to what is good and innocent as to what is evil. 20 The God of peace will soon crush Satan under your feet. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.21 Timothy, my fellow worker, greets you; so do Lucius and Jason and Sosipater, my kinsmen.22 I Tertius, who wrote this letter, greet you in the Lord. 23 Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.25 Now to him who is able to strengthen you according to my gospel and the preaching of Jesus Christ, according to the revelation of the mystery that was kept secret for long ages 26 but has now been disclosed and through the prophetic writings has been made known to all nations, according to the command of the eternal God, to bring about the obedience of faith— 27 to the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.1.     The sermon opens with the "how's it going" that isn't really a question — quick, shallow, going nowhere. Do you experience much of that shallow interaction in your day-to-day life?2.     Paul's list of greetings cuts across every social line Rome used to keep people in their place — status, class, ethnicity, gender. Where in your own life do you find it hardest to cross those kinds of lines (there are others in our culture)?3.     Paul tells Apelles he's "approved in Christ" — you've been through the fire and held on, and also, your approval was never in yourself to begin with. Which of those two do you need to hear more right now?4.     Sometimes the same quality that makes a church warm and welcoming is exactly what wolves exploit. How do you hold those two things together — staying genuinely open and also genuinely discerning?5.     If you are a Christian, what do you find to be your personal hurdles to engaging in free, full-hearted worship of God?6.     Quartus — "Number Four" — a nobody with a slave's name, whose name ends up in the most important letter ever written. Is there someone in your life right now who feels invisible or nameless to the people around them, and what would it look like for you to do what Paul did?

In this Bible study we continue through Acts chapter 18. Paul arrives in Corinth, meets Aquila and Priscilla, and works with them as tentmakers. He reasons in the synagogue every Sabbath, testifies that Jesus is the Christ, and faces opposition before turning to the Gentiles. Crispus the chief ruler of the synagogue believes along with many others. The Lord encourages Paul in a vision, and later Aquila and Priscilla instruct Apollos more perfectly in the way of God.

June 17, 2026 - Wednesday PM Bible Class In this episode the speaker examines the life and character of Apollos as introduced in Acts 18 and referenced throughout Acts 19, 1 Corinthians, and Titus. Using Acts 18:24–28 as the primary text, the episode explores Apollos's background (a Jew from Alexandria), his strengths (eloquence, scriptural competence, fervent spirit), and the pivotal moment when Priscilla and Aquila privately corrected his understanding of baptism. The conversation covers practical themes and biblical takeaways: be strong in the Scriptures, use your gifts for God's glory, cultivate zeal, do not let fear silence you, be humble enough to learn, accept correction with grace, welcome unexpected teachers, keep growing, and encourage other believers. The host ties these lessons to the episode's central thesis: with God there is guaranteed success — but we must be willing to get off the launch pad and act. Scripture passages discussed include Acts 18 and 19, 1 Corinthians chapters 1 and 3, and Titus 3:13. The speaker also draws on vivid analogies and anecdotes (the Apollo space-launch metaphor, a 350-mile ultramarathon example, a bursting sourdough jar, a large local insect, and John Ford's Battle of Midway footage) to illuminate courage, zeal, and the willingness to risk failure for a greater purpose. The episode highlights key biblical figures who interact with Apollos — Priscilla and Aquila who teach him, Paul whose ministry context provides contrast, and the Corinthian church where tensions about followership arise — and shows how Apollos's response to correction models a faithful balance of boldness and humility. Listeners can expect a mix of expository teaching, pastoral application, and memorable illustrations aimed at encouraging Christians to step into service despite the risk of mistakes, to receive correction with grace, and to let God receive the glory for spiritual growth and fruit.   Duration 41:19

In this message from Acts 18, we see how God strengthens weary servants so they can strengthen others. Through Paul, Priscilla, Aquila, Timothy, Silas, and Apollos, we are reminded that a healthy church is built through mutual encouragement, faithful discipleship, and ordinary believers helping one another keep going.

Apollos was eloquent, passionate, and powerful in the Scriptures, but he still needed someone to help him understand the fullness of the gospel. In Acts 18, Aquila and Priscilla humbly guide him, and he becomes a great blessing to the church. This episode reminds us to know the Word deeply, remain teachable, and make ourselves fully available for God's use.

He, along with his wife Priscilla, is mentioned in the book of Acts and in St Paul's Epistle to the Romans. He and his wife were Jews who moved to Corinth when the Emperor Claudius expelled all Jews from Italy. They were working as tentmakers in Corinth when they met and worked with St Paul, also a tentmaker by trade, who brought them to faith in Christ. From that time onward they worked diligently to spread the Gospel of Christ. The Prologue says that they died at the hands of pagans, the Great Horologion that the circumstances of their repose are unknown.

If you want multiplication, you can't just aim at mature disciples or healthy churches and assume the other will magically appear. In this solo episode, Mark argues that leaders are the missing link between disciples and churches, and real leaders are formed through responsibility, not just information. The episode presses into why charisma creates false starts, why faithfulness has to be proven locally, and why disciple-making DNA and church stewardship both matter. If you're tired of training people who can explain the vision but don't actually carry the work, this one gives you language and a diagnostic.- Save Your Seat for the "The Aquila and Priscilla Pattern" 45 Min Zoom Lab next month: ⁠https://covomultipliers.com/s/Re6np6- Find Dave on Substack: ⁠⁠⁠https://substack.com/@damillertime⁠⁠⁠⁠- And Mark on Substack: ⁠https://substack.com/@multiplyingdisciples⁠

A young woman Cynthia discipled in Nepal went on to lead a friend to Christ — who became a church planter among a people group that had never had a gospel witness before. In this episode, Cynthia breaks down the four specific things she did that let that chain keep multiplying, traces the same pattern through Paul, Priscilla, Aquila, and Apollos in Acts 18, and makes the case that most discipleship in the West never gets the chance to multiply because it never leaves the classroom.

What if the greatest impact of your life is actually built out of the smallest, everyday decisions? In this talk, Pastor Ben Stuart walks us through Acts 18, where we meet Priscilla and Aquila, a married couple whose quiet, everyday yeses end up shaping the future of the Church. We learn what a godly marriage really looks like: not just a picture of Christ and the church, but a pursuit of Christ and the church together. Whether you're single, dating, engaged, or married, we see that there's a greater purpose for your life too.

Are you living in the shallow end of your faith without even realizing it? Acts 18 and 19 reveal a powerful truth: it is possible to love God, know Scripture, and still be operating with an incomplete experience of who He is and what He has made available to you.Apollos was one of the most gifted communicators of the early church. He was educated, fervent, and accurate in his teaching about Jesus. But there was a gap. When Priscilla and Aquila recognized it, they did not shame him. They invited him in and explained the way of God more fully. Growing deeper in faith is not about starting over. It is about letting God build on what He has already placed in you.In Acts 19, Paul meets disciples who had believed in Jesus but had never heard of the Holy Spirit. When Paul laid hands on them, the Holy Spirit came upon them and they spoke in tongues and prophesied. This moment points to something that many believers have never fully explored: the baptism of the Holy Spirit as a deeper dimension of relationship with God, a greater filling and empowerment available to every believer.Isaiah 44:3 says God will pour out His Spirit on the thirsty. Not the talented. Not the impressive. The thirsty. Hunger is the qualification. Jesus confirmed it in Matthew 5:6 when He said those who hunger and thirst for righteousness will be filled.This message also explores the gifts of the Spirit, including prophecy, healing, miracles, words of knowledge, and discerning of spirits. These gifts are not reserved for a select few. Paul writes in 1 Corinthians 12 that he does not want believers to be uninformed about spiritual gifts, and he urges them three times to earnestly desire them. The gifts are meant to build up the whole body of Christ and must always be governed by love.Practical steps covered include making yourself available to God, cultivating genuine hunger for the things of the Spirit, exercising faith in small steps of obedience, and staying rooted in love as the foundation for everything.John 10:10 tells us that Jesus came so we could have life abundantly, meaning overflowing, beyond measure, uncommon. Not just the basics. Not just enough to get by. So why settle for ankle deep when God is calling you into waters deep enough to swim in?Topics covered include the baptism of the Holy Spirit, spiritual gifts, growing in faith, the story of Apollos, Acts 18 and 19, how to go deeper with God, spiritual maturity, hunger for God, Holy Spirit empowerment, gifts of the Spirit explained, and how to walk in the Spirit.

This episode pushes into the tension many practitioners feel: should you aim at making disciples, starting churches, or both? Mark and Dave argue that what you aim for is usually what you reproduce, so vague language creates vague outcomes. They unpack why disciple-making without a church pathway often stalls before leadership, and why church planting without disciple-making DNA creates gatherings that don't multiply. You'll walk away with a sharper way to diagnose your work, clarify the goal downstream, and build a pathway from lost to leader and from church start to church health.Save Your Seat for the "The Aquila and Priscilla Pattern" 45 Min Zoom Lab next month: ⁠https://covomultipliers.com/s/Re6np6Find Dave on Substack: ⁠⁠⁠https://substack.com/@damillertime⁠⁠⁠⁠And Mark on Substack: ⁠https://substack.com/@multiplyingdisciples⁠

Continuing through the book of Acts, Pastor Luke focuses on the beginning of Paul's third missionary journey, where the emphasis shifts from simply planting churches to strengthening the disciples already in them. The big idea driving the sermon is that the gospel doesn't just save — it transforms every part of our lives. Pastor Luke illustrates this first through the story of Apollos, a brilliantly educated man from Alexandria who nonetheless lacked a full understanding of the gospel. When Priscilla and Aquila — ordinary tentmakers — took him aside privately and explained the way of God more accurately, Apollos humbly received their correction. That humility, Pastor Luke argues, is what made him teachable, and his teachability is what made him wise and ultimately one of the most impactful teachers in the early church. The second half of the sermon turns to the Ephesian believers and the contrast between genuine and counterfeit spirituality. When the seven sons of Sceva tried to invoke Jesus's name as a spiritual technique without any real relationship with Him, they were overpowered and publicly shamed. The Ephesian believers, by contrast, responded to what they witnessed with deep repentance — publicly confessing their practices and burning their magic books, valued at the equivalent of several million dollars. Pastor Luke draws a clear line between syncretism — treating Jesus as one spiritual resource among many — and true discipleship, which declares Jesus as Lord alone. He closes by calling the congregation to ongoing repentance and surrender, reminding them that transformation isn't a one-time event but a lifelong process powered by Christ Himself.

Most disciple-making training fails because people hear the content but never see it lived. In this episode, Mark and Dave unpack why information alone does not create competent disciple-makers, and why most people need reps, "withness," accountability, and temporary incompetence. The two-church model gives ordinary believers a way to learn church by participating in one gathering while starting rhythms with people in their own world. If you have ever felt stuck after a training, this episode shows why the problem may not be your desire, but the environment you are learning in.Save Your Seat for the "The Aquila and Priscilla Pattern" 45 Min Zoom Lab next month: ⁠https://covomultipliers.com/s/JKnBpbFind Dave on Substack: ⁠⁠⁠https://substack.com/@damillertime⁠⁠⁠⁠And Mark on Substack: ⁠https://substack.com/@multiplyingdisciples⁠

In this message from Acts 17–18, Pastor Jeremy unpacks Paul's evangelism in Athens and Corinth, anchoring everything around one central truth: the gospel must be faithfully communicated in every culture. In Athens, Paul doesn't wait for his traveling companions before acting — when the Holy Spirit spurs him, he moves. And rather than defaulting to Old Testament history as he would with Jewish audiences, Paul meets the Athenian philosophers right where they are, using their own altar "to the unknown God" as a springboard to proclaim the living God, the resurrection of Jesus, and the good news of the gospel. From there, Paul moves on to Corinth — a bustling, morally notorious trade city — where he meets Aquila and Priscilla, two ordinary tentmakers who become the backbone of his ministry. Pastor Jeremy draws out a powerful lesson from their example: you don't have to be a gifted speaker or a called pastor to play a significant role in God's kingdom. When ordinary people are faithful, God makes them extraordinary. Paul is eventually kicked out of the synagogue, threatened by Jewish leaders, and in need of God's protection — and God delivers on every front, even using the Roman official Gallio to shield Paul so he can spend 18 fruitful months in Corinth.

In Matthew 28:18-20 Christ says the mission of the church is to go to all people groups and 1) baptize or submerge the people in relationship with the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, and 2) teach the people to do the things Jesus wants them to do. The focus of this sermon is on the responsibility of immersing fellow believers in the presence of fellow believers, especially of believers admonishing one another. The story in Acts 18:24-28 of Aquila and Priscilla taking Apollos aside and explaining “to him the way of God more accurately” is an example of discipling a fellow believer. According to Romans 15:14, ordinary believers are qualified to admonish. To admonish means to warn based on instruction. According to Galatians 6:1-5, admonition requires meekness and willingness to bear another's burden and address “a man overtaken in any trespass.” A trespass is a fault or misstep. A person who is spiritual can restore someone who has committed a trespass. According to I Thess. 5:14-15, different needs require different kinds of admonition. The unruly (insubordinate, undisciplined) should be warned, the fainthearted (timid) should be encouraged, and the weak should be supported. Matthew 18:15-22 says that those who do not receive admonition or discipline after being approached three times should be excommunicated. I Cor. 5 and II Cor. 2 also speak about excommunication and restoration. How can we best approach our responsibility to admonish and receive admonishment? I have observed that in general people do not like to be admonished, and neither do people like to admonish others, which results in the ordained doing most of the admonishing. Amidst these challenges it is important to remember that the level of love, humility, and secure belonging and attachment present in our relationships determines to a large extent how we share and receive admonishment.

In this encouraging message from Acts 18, Pastor Brandon Smith reveals that God is not looking for perfect people—He's looking for faithful people. Through the examples of Paul, Aquila and Priscilla, and Apollos, this sermon explores how believers can remain faithful through opposition, ordinary seasons, and times of growth. If you're walking through hardship, feeling overlooked, or wondering if your faith is making a difference, this message will remind you that faithfulness is what God honors.

Most people skip Romans 16 because it looks like a list of names they cannot pronounce. But every name here is a person who carried the Gospel to Rome before Paul ever arrived. Phoebe delivered this letter. Prisca and Aquila risked their necks for Paul's life. Andronicus and Junia were in prison with him. These are real Christians with real stories, and Paul knows them by name even though he has never visited their church. Romans ends the way the faith has always spread: through people who showed up for each other because Christ showed up for them.  The Rev. John Shank, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Edwardsville, IL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Romans 16:1–27.  To learn more about Trinity in Edwardsville, visit trinitylutheranministries.org. Why does doing the right thing sometimes feel impossible? Why do feelings of guilt follow us even when we've been forgiven? These aren't new questions. St. Paul wrote his letter to the Romans for a church he had never visited, and yet he addressed the struggles every Christian knows firsthand: the weight of the law, the persistence of sin, the sufficiency of what God has done in Christ. Romans covers enormous ground. Paul moves from the universal problem of sin through justification by faith, the role of baptism, the war between flesh and spirit, God's faithfulness to Israel, and the shape of life together in the body of Christ. There's a reason the Reformation was born in this letter. Join us on Thy Strong Word as we open up Romans, weekdays at 11am or on-demand anytime, at KFUO.org.  Thy Strong Word, hosted by Rev. Dr. Phil Booe, pastor of St. John Lutheran Church of Luverne, MN, reveals the light of our salvation in Christ through study of God's Word, breaking our darkness with His redeeming light. Each weekday, two pastors fix our eyes on Jesus by considering Holy Scripture, verse by verse, in order to be strengthened in the Word and be equipped to faithfully serve in our daily vocations. Submit comments or questions to: thystrongword@kfuo.org.

In this final episode of our Daughters series, we're diving into the story of Priscilla—a woman whose life reminds us that God loves to use ordinary people in extraordinary ways. Even though Priscilla doesn't have a single, linear story in Scripture, her impact on the early church is impossible to miss. Alongside her husband Aquila, she modeled faithful partnership, discipleship, hospitality, and unwavering commitment to God's mission. We talk about what it looks like to build the Kingdom alongside other people, why discipleship often happens around dinner tables and in everyday conversations, and how God uses His daughters to make an eternal impact. As we close out this entire series, we reflect on the beautiful truth that we are deeply loved daughters of God, living in light of the resurrection and empowered to share the hope of Jesus wherever He places us.
