Leaving the Ephesians

Leaving the Ephesians

As Paul was teaching late into the night, a young man Eutychus seated on the ledge of a third-story window, fell asleep and fell to the ground. The fall killed poor Eutychus, but God had a plan for him and used Paul to speak healing over the boy, and life was restored to him. As Paul and Luke traveled along the Asian sea teaching, his mind was constantly turned toward Ephesus. At last, he decided to visit them one last time before going to Jerusalem where he would be beaten and brought before the courts.

Acts 20:35
In our previous episode, we heard how Paul planted a church in Ephesus that became a strong, bold, and effective body of believers. Paul would hold a special place in his heart from the Ephesian church and find great encouragement in the faith of the believers there. Today we’ll hear as Paul continues his missionary work after departing Ephesus. We’ll hear how he performs yet another miracle that demonstrates the power of Christ living in him. As he moves throughout Asia, he’ll share the gospel every chance he gets, even as he looks ahead with some trepidation to his return to Jerusalem.
