Acts - The Gift of Christian Community and Cost of Discipleship

In Acts 21 we see the apostle Paul’s life illustrates the painful pleasure of following Jesus. Paul is a man on a mission, headed to Jerusalem. His friends think he is crazy for going, however Paul is resolved and compelled by the Spirit. Paul’s trip to Jerusalem is full of hellos and good-byes and in our text Luke wants us to see the strength and importance of Christian community and the cost of discipleship.
