Still Helping
(Acts 21:8-9)
Philip is not only a model of evangelism, but also the often-neglected ministry of helps.

The Ongoing Work of the Holy Spirit
(Acts 8:39–40) The Holy Spirit’s work is ongoing for both new converts and seasoned ministers. Being led by the Spirit is a daily way of life, and believers should expect both comfort and challenge from the Spirit’s presence. We must trust the Spirit’s guidance, remain faithful wherever we are "passing through," and keep sharing the gospel.

The Order of the Holy Spirit
(Acts 8:30-35) The order of the Holy Spirit is illustrated by Philip’s encounter with the Ethiopian eunuch: and is characterized by an openness to the Spirit, immediate obedience, a singular objective to lift up Christ, and an order that follows Scripture from start to finish. Scott Pauley shows how Philip’s familiarity with Isaiah 53 enabled him to meet the moment and preach Jesus effectively.

The Objective of the Holy Spirit
(Acts 8:31-35) The Holy Spirit equips believers to carry the good news of Jesus wherever the Spirit leads. Using Philip the Evangelist and the account of the Ethiopian eunuch in Acts 8 as a focal point, we see the Spirit’s primary objective is to reveal Christ and empower ordinary Christians to share the gospel.

Obedient to the Holy Spirit
(Acts 8:29-30) The word gospel contains the idea of going, and we see this illustrated in Philip’s willingness to follow the Spirit’s lead.

To be a gospel Christian who makes a difference, yie

The Great Gospel Advance
(Acts 8:1-40) Take a panoramic look at Acts 8 — a pivotal chapter that charts the advance of the gospel from Jerusalem to Judea, Samaria, and the uttermost part of the earth. Drawing on Philip the Evangelist’s example, Scott Pauley outlines five practical observations: that the gospel advances by persecution, by faithful preaching, by persistent prayer, by the promptings of the Holy Spirit, and by
Now What?
(Acts 8:37-40)
Consider Philip’s faithful obedience to the Holy Spirit and the simplicity and Christ-centeredness of Philip’s message. We must see every person — rich or poor — as a soul in need of Jesus. We are called to keep sharing the message, guiding new believers in the next step of obedience through believer's baptism, and continue preaching everywhere. There is no place to stop.

Give Them Jesus
(Acts 8:31-38) The Christian life is meant to advance the good news of Jesus—personally, practically, and prayerfully. We must point wandering souls to the way of life. We are to be Spirit-filled and Scripture-filled, learning key gospel texts, and using questions and conversations as natural entry points to share Christ. This lesson explores Philip the evangelist’s approach—recognizing God-placed
Use the Roadmap!
(Acts 8:26-35) Drawing on Philip's obedience to the Spirit, this lesson highlights the importance of divine appointments, active evangelism, and moving beyond passive or institutional approaches to faith.
Philip was led by an angel and the Spirit to meet the Ethiopian official, and Philip used Scripture as a road map. This lesson stresses practical evangelistic tools: look for people God is prepar
Acts 8 | Becoming A Gospel Guide
(Acts 8:26-31) Join Scott Pauley for an examination of Acts 8:26-31 and the life-changing ministry of Philip the Evangelist and his encounter with the Ethiopian eunuch. This lesson explores what it means to be a gospel guide — a believer who is willing to go where the Spirit leads and introduce others to Jesus. We are called to be witnesses and personal gospel guides, looking for people along the
The Weekend Pulpit: When Jesus Comes to Town
In this Weekend Pulpit message, Scott continues his study in Acts 11 and explores the unlikely rise of the church in Antioch. Using the church's story as a model, he shows how the gospel advances when the Lord is central to a congregation and when believers pass along what they have received.
Scott examines Acts 11:19–24, highlighting four marks of what happens when the Lord "comes to town": the m
Great Joy In That City
(Acts 8:5-8) From this study, we learn to: (1) tell the lost of Jesus, (2) both speak and show the gospel, and (3) depend on divine power — expecting God to move, even amid spiritual opposition and warfare. We are to love people where we are, finding our Jerusalem and sharing the gospel locally, being doers and not just hearers of the Word. This way, we can bring great joy to our city.
