Acts 27

God saves Paul at sea

 

Learn a new word tonight: PERSEVERANCE-continuing to run your race even when facing obstacles.

On day FIVE, our athletes will hear about a part of Paul’s race where things get a bit scary. Paul is on his way to Rome, to tell the Romans about Jesus. God told Paul to go to Rome and even though Paul was scared he knew that he would be kept safe because he trusted in God’s promise to bring him to Rome. Paul knew that God always keeps his promises but how did he keep going?

Because of God’s grace Paul was able to persevere and continue his journey rather than turn around and go home.

What was the source of Paul’s perseverance?

Philippians 3:8-14_________________________________________________________________

Romans 5:1-11___________________________________________________________________

Romans 8:18; 28-39________________________________________________________________

Discuss: The only way we are able to run the race and Carry the Torch of Good News is because God keeps his promises. By trusting in God’s promises as Paul did, we can share God’s goodness with others.
