OM DENNE EPISODE
In Acts 15–17, the early church faces a defining question: must Gentile believers adopt Jewish law in order to belong to the people of God? From the Jerusalem Council to the beginning of Paul’s second missionary journey, these chapters show a community learning to discern the Spirit’s leading, protect the heart of the gospel, and remain united across deep cultural differences.
As Paul, Silas and Timothy carry that message into Philippi, Thessalonica, Berea and Athens, the good news meets very different responses—faith and hospitality, opposition and imprisonment, careful searching and philosophical debate. This episode follows the gospel across new borders and asks what faithful witness looks like when the message of Jesus enters unfamiliar places, challenges settled assumptions, and creates a new kind of community.
