Hello Timothy. Hello Luke. Acts 16.

Take a look at your Bible maps to see just how far off the beaten path Paul went to reach Timothy. He'd been there before, in Lystra, and the people had tried to treat him like a god, a hero. They ended up treating him like a villian. Timothy was plucked out of that countryside village, half-Jew, half-Gentile, like the Samaritans, to learn and grow at the side of Paul and Silas, and then to go out on his own, supervising the churches and elders in Ephesus.

And how about that Luke? Do you see him? What else do you see in this chapter?
