Andrew Gardner begins our Welcome Stranger series by looking at Priscilla and Aquila who can be found in Acts 18:1-3 and Acts 18:18-28.
Aquila and Priscilla met Paul in Corinth after they had fled Rome in Claudius’s persecution of the Jews, and were earning their living as tent-makers. They found Christ and a year and a half later Paul took them with him to Ephesus where the Church was established in their home. They mentored Apollos and supported Timothy when he became pastor. We consider the dynamics of this active Christian couple where, unusually for the time, Priscilla is often mentioned first, indicating her strong role in the couple’s witness and ministry behind the scenes.

Dave Ginns continues our Freedom series looking at Galatians 4:21-5:6.
How can we ‘live free’ if we are emotionally ‘tied’ to our past problems? We look at what Galatians 5 says about being strong in our faith, so we don’t let the past enslave us or drag us back. We no longer need a list of rules to control our behaviour. We have the love of Christ and the Holy Spirit to live by. This is freedom.

Dan Feeny concludes our series looking at Paul’s letter to Titus by looking at Titus 3.
We are reminded who we were before knowing Christ (Titus 3:3) and then comes the brilliant “but” of Titus 3:4.
We can celebrate the “kindness and love of God” (Titus 3:4) in Jesus Christ and we are part of his ancient (but on-going) story. Through all of the instruction we can join Paul in his real heartbeat here. So what is our purpose? Paul says these things to Titus so that they and we “may be careful to devote themselves to doing what is good”.
