No Place Left | Life’s Difficulties and the Support of the Church 
(Acts 21:1-16)

Acts 21:1-16

Life and ministry are hard, but the gospel forms the church into the perfect family we need along the way.

“The physical presence of other Christians is a source of incomparable joy and strength to the believer… Therefore, let him who until now has had the privilege of living a common Christian life with other Christians praise God’s grace from the bottom of his heart. Let him thank God on his knees and declare: It is grace, nothing but grace, that we are allowed to live in community with Christian brethren.” — Dietrich Bonhoeffer
