The Empire Strikes Back

APOLOGIES: We installed a new sound system this week and it has affected our live streaming audio. Please forgive the loud hum present in this recording.

Acts 21 Paul begins the trip home to Jerusalem from his travels on his 3rd missionary journey led by the Spirit, but there is danger ahead. While the early church leaders greet him warmly and celebrate God's work among the gentiles, other Jewish leaders are enraged by Paul's teaching about Jesus. Paul willingly steps into this violence even though he is warned and his friends "urge him in the Spirit" not to go. When faith and fear collide, how do we discern the leading of the Holy Spirit.
