The document summarizes Paul and Barnabas' missionary journey through southern Galatia, planting churches in three cities - Iconium, Lystra, and Derbe. It describes their encounters in each city, including facing opposition in Iconium, healing a lame man and being worshipped as gods in Lystra, and successfully preaching the gospel in Derbe. It then discusses their return journey through these cities to strengthen the disciples before returning to their home base in Antioch, having completed their work of establishing churches throughout the region.

I’ve often observed that many people’s top-ranking fear is not death but having to speak in public. The joke is that these people would rather lie in a casket at their own funeral than give the eulogy.
Public speaking for people who suffer from panic attacks or general anxiety often becomes a major source of worry, possibly weeks or even months before the speaking event is to occur.
Getting to Sleep and Panic Attacks at Night
As most doctors will tell you, there are two things that disturb sleep: physical pain and worry.
It’s therefore understandable that many people with anxiety report frequent sleep disturbance as a major problem.
Not being able to sleep can actually be quite traumatic for many people.
The first thing you need to understand about sleep is this: it’s not the amount of sleep you get that’s important, but rather the quality of the sleep.
Quality over quantity.
am going to give you some quick tips to help tackle any problems you are having with sleep.
A verse by verse commentary on Acts chapter 14 dealing with the powerful ministry of Paul and Barnabas. Jewish opposition forced them to flee.When they healed a cripple the people thought they were gods come down, but they preached the true God and many believed.
If you are a Christian are you a minister, a servant of God? If not, why not? Why aren't all Christians actively serving Christ and engaged in fulfilling the "great commission"? Are academic qualifications necessary for ministry? Explain how academic degrees could be an impediment to serving Christ? How is the Pauline strategy of missions in establishing and expanding the church, different from most modern mission strategies?

What is the difference between a group of Christians doing ministry and a ministry team? Have you ever been a part of a ministry team? Describe your experience. How did Paul establish more than a dozen local churches in ten years? Explain your answer. Who accompanied him during each of his three missionary journeys? What is essential for an effective ministry team? (Acts 13:2-3; 14:23; 1 Cor. 3:7-9) What requirements, do you think, are necessary to be an effective ministry team member?

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

7. PLANTING CHURCHES IN SOUTHERN GALATIA
ICONIUM
At Iconium Paul and Barnabas went as usual into the
Jewish synagogue. There they spoke so effectively that a
great number of Jews and Greeks believed. But the Jews
who refused to believe stirred up the other Gentiles and
poisoned their minds against the brothers. So Paul and
Barnabas spent considerable time there, speaking boldly
for the Lord, who confirmed the message of his grace by
enabling them to perform signs and wonders. The people
of the city were divided; some sided with the Jews, others
with the apostles. There was a plot afoot among both
Gentiles and Jews, together with their leaders, to mistreat
them and stone them. But they found out about it and fled
to the Lycaonian cities of Lystra and Derbe and to the
surrounding country, where they continued to preach the
gospel.
8. PLANTING CHURCHES IN SOUTHERN GALATIA
LYSTRA
In Lystra there sat a man who was lame. He had been
that way from birth and had never walked. He
listened to Paul as he was speaking. Paul looked
directly at him, saw that he had faith to be healed
and called out, “Stand up on your feet!” At that, the
man jumped up and began to walk. When the crowd
saw what Paul had done, they shouted in the
Lycaonian language, “The gods have come down to
us in human form!” Barnabas they called Zeus, and
Paul they called Hermes because he was the chief
speaker. The priest of Zeus, whose temple was just
outside the city, brought bulls and wreaths to the
city gates because he and the crowd wanted to offer
sacrifices to them.
9. PLANTING CHURCHES IN SOUTHERN GALATIA
LYSTRA
But when the apostles Barnabas and Paul heard of
this, they tore their clothes and rushed out into the
crowd, shouting: “Friends, why are you doing this?
We too are only human, like you. We are bringing
you good news, telling you to turn from these
worthless things to the living God, who made the
heavens and the earth and the sea and everything in
them. In the past, he let all nations go their own
way. Yet he has not left himself without testimony:
He has shown kindness by giving you rain from
heaven and crops in their seasons; he provides you
with plenty of food and fills your hearts with joy.”
10. PLANTING CHURCHES IN SOUTHERN GALATIA
LYSTRA
Even with these words, they had difficulty
keeping the crowd from sacrificing to them. Then
some Jews came from Antioch and Iconium and
won the crowd over. They stoned Paul and
dragged him outside the city, thinking he was
dead. But after the disciples had gathered around
him, he got up and went back into the city. The
next day he and Barnabas left for Derbe
11. PLANTING CHURCHES IN SOUTHERN GALATIA
DERBE
They preached the gospel in that city and won a
large number of disciples
12. PLANTING CHURCHES IN SOUTHERN GALATIA
RETURN JOURNEY
Then they returned to Lystra, Iconium and
Antioch, strengthening the disciples and
encouraging them to remain true to the faith. “We
must go through many hardships to enter the
kingdom of God,” they said. Paul and Barnabas
appointed elders for them in each church and,
with prayer and fasting, committed them to the
Lord, in whom they had put their trust. After
going through Pisidia, they came into Pamphylia,
and when they had preached the word in Perga,
they went down to Attalia
13. PLANTING CHURCHES IN SOUTHERN GALATIA
BACK TO THE CHURCH IN ANTIOCH
From Attalia they sailed back to Antioch, where
they had been committed to the grace of God for
the work they had now completed. On arriving
there, they gathered the church together and
reported all that God had done through them and
how he had opened a door of faith to the
Gentiles. And they stayed there a long time with
the disciples.

17. SENDING COMMMUNITY
While they were
worshiping the Lord
and fasting, the Holy
Spirit said, “Set apart
for me Barnabas and
Saul for the work to
which I have called
them.” So after they
had fasted and prayed,
they placed their hands
on them and sent them
off.
From Attalia they sailed

ANTIOCH in Pisidia
Then Paul and Barnabas answered them boldly: “We
had to speak the word of God to you first. Since you
reject it and do not consider yourselves worthy of
eternal life, we now turn to the Gentiles. For this is
what the Lord has commanded us:“‘I have made you
a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation
to the ends of the earth. ’” When the Gentiles heard
this, they were glad and honored the word of the
Lord; and all who were appointed for eternal life
believed

To the Jews I became like a Jew, to win the Jews. To
those under the law I became like one under the law
(though I myself am not under the law), so as to win
those under the law. To those not having the law I
became like one not having the law (though I am
not free from God’s law but am under Christ’s law),
so as to win those not having the law. To the weak I
became weak, to win the weak. I have become all
things to all people so that by all possible means I
might save some. I do all this for the sake of the
gospel, that I may share in its blessings
