Acts Ch.21

This week Trent and Tanner reviewed Acts chapter 21. They discussed how Paul was warned by a prophet and his peers to not go to Jerusalem. And how Paul refused to listen, but rather he continued to speak the truth no matter where he traveled. Paul continued his journey to Jerusalem with several men, making a new vow to show the people he still believes traditional Jewish laws. When Paul finally reaches Jerusalem he entered the city temple. Immediately he was bombarded by people who hated him. The prophets were correct. Paul was almost beaten to death. When the Roman guards took Paul he asked to speak. Next week Elijah and Jacob will review what Paul has to say to the people of Jerusalem.

Acts Ch. 20

Noah, Emily, and Alex read, discussed, and asked questions about Acts chapter 20. They talked about the Passover celebration and Pentecost. They also discussed how Paul has gone through some serious hard times, and how he understands that he will go through more hard times on his road to Jerusalem. All three leaders understood the importance of this chapter. That you can never give up on what God has planned for you and that through tough times God will prevail.

Next week Tanner and Trent will discuss chapter 21. It's a mob of a time :)
