Acts 18:1 - 19:7

ActsSteve Gregg
In this Acts 18:1-19:7 discussion, Steve Gregg provides an overview of the Apostle Paul's ministry in Corinth and Ephesus. Despite encountering challenges in Corinth, including a divided church and a lack of indigenous Christians, Paul spent a significant amount of time there before moving on to Ephesus. In Ephesus, he encountered a group of people who had been baptized by John the Baptist but had not yet received the Holy Spirit, leading to a discussion on the significance of Christian baptism and the early church's practice of laying hands on baptized individuals to receive the Holy Spirit.
