Acts 27 tells a story of high drama—a storm at sea, a shipwreck, and a nefarious plot to kill those aboard the ship. Through it all, Paul trusted in God.
Acts 24 continues the story of Paul on trial. The Jews used flattery to accuse him, but Paul used facts. He was on trial for his faith in the resurrection.
Wherever Paul went on his missionary journeys, God raised up other Christians to assist him. In Acts 18, we see this ecclesiastical synergy at work again.
