In Acts 18, we follow the Apostle Paul through one of the most significant seasons of his missionary journey as he ministers in Corinth. Facing opposition, discouragement, and spiritual warfare, Paul receives a powerful reminder from the Lord: “Do not be afraid…for I am with you.” This chapter reminds us that God is faithful to strengthen His people, even when ministry is difficult. In this verse-by-verse Bible study, we’ll explore Paul’s partnership with Priscilla and Aquila, his ministry in the synagogue and among the Gentiles, God’s encouraging vision to Paul, his appearance before Gallio, and the introduction of Apollos—whose humility and teachability become a model for every follower of Christ. Whether you’re studying the Book of Acts on your own, with a small group, or preparing to teach, this study will help you understand the historical background, theological significance, and practical application of Acts 18.
In this study, we’ll cover:
- Paul’s ministry in Corinth
- Priscilla and Aquila’s role in the early church
- God’s encouragement in seasons of fear and opposition
- Gallio’s judgment and its significance
- The ministry and teachability of Apollos
- Practical lessons for Christian discipleship today
Join us as we continue our journey through the Book of Acts and discover how God continues to build His Church through ordinary people empowered by the Holy Spirit.
