Ancient Wonder

Acts 19:21-41 | Nathan Noorlun | Paul’s ministry in Ephesus is booming, but you know what’s not booming because of this, the sale of idols of Artemis or the worship of her in her temple in the city. A silversmith named Demetrius is none too happy about this. You see, all these people turning to “The Way” is hurting his bottom line. Since everyone is turning to Jesus, they are no longer turning to the little silver god on the dashboard of their chariots. One thing leads to another, and Paul and his companions are dragged through the streets amid a full-scale riot. How will the gospel fair against such deep-rooted and violent opposition?
