Hello, friends, this is Scott Paul.

Thank you for studying the Word of God again with us this week, the life of Aquila and Priscilla.

Do you remember in our last study that I said that we are stewards, stewards of the truth,

To me, this is like the exclamation point on the story. This is so powerful because they were still together. They were still

serving the Lord. They were still encouraging the Apostle Paul. They were still connected to the work of a
