A Riot in the Bible!? | Paul the Apostle in Ephesus

In ca 55 A.D./C.E., the city of Ephesus exploded into chaos and confusion. At the center of the unrest was Paul the Apostle. This is a mini-documentary about that episode in history (recorded in Acts 19). It's produced by yours truly for Olney Baptist Church and I'm sharing it with you all now as well. :-) The title for my presentation to OBC was "A Great Commotion: Lessons from a Riot." ************ The video was made primarily with Camtasia 2021 with an assist from Canva.
