—Acts 20:22-31
by: Kristin Camenga.
Paul had to pass on some final advice to the Ephesian elders. He wanted to complete the task God had given him: to tell others about God’s incredible grace. Part of this task was a deep commitment to the church at Ephesus; after three years spent with them, his focus was to see them stand firm, even as he left them for unknown trials. Are we this committed to seeing our friends stand firm in the faith? Will we speak without hesitation when God has given us a warning and make every effort to encourage our brothers and sisters in Christ?
