Acts 13 - 18:22
Teacher: Ed Reifsnyder
Fellow class members, I thought I would give you advance notice of this week’s three points we will cover in class in case you want to do some advance investigation.
- The Other. Early church history is notable for collisions with The Other. You may want to do a little research about the concept of The Other.
- The Jerusalem Council. One of the results of the collision of The Other with The Other is th Jerusalem Council. You may want to particularly review Acts 15.
- Paul’s evangelistic preferences. Paul’s mission was very focused and intentional in objectives. You might spend some time evaluating how Paul did business and who his target audience was.
Happy exploring!
Ed Reifsnyder
