Acts Chapter 16 is packed with unforgettable moments! First, Paul receives a vision in the night calling him over to Macedonia. In Philippi, a businesswoman named Lydia accepts the faith and opens her home. Later, after casting a spirit out of an exploited slave girl, Paul and Silas are severely beaten, stripped, and locked in the deepest part of a prison with their feet in stocks. Instead of complaining, at midnight they start praying and singing hymns. Suddenly, a massive earthquake shakes the foundations, every door flies open, and all the chains fall off!

Certain teachers insisted that new non-Jewish converts had to follow ancient Jewish customs and legalistic laws in order to be saved.

Through testimonies from Peter, Paul, Barnabas and a wise ruling from James using scriptures, the council concluded that salvation is by grace alone through faith and not by heavy human burdens.You may read the corresponding article to this podcast:, "Lifting Unnecessary Burdens" on Blogger and www.vitalhope.co.Sister Glenda Coker @ www.vitalhope.co

In Acts Chapter 14, the mission continues through Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe. Miracles happen; a man lame from birth is completely healed in Lystra! But things take a wild turn.

Opponents arrive from other cities, poison the crowd's minds, and stone Paul until they think he's dead. But as the disciples gather around him, Paul gets right back up, goes back into the city, and keeps strengthening the believers!Check out the corresponding article: Getting Back Up: The Power of PerseveranceThank you for tuning in!
