Description: Paul's farewell to the elders of Ephesus in Acts 20 gives every believer and every congregation four timeless anchors for staying true to Christ: stay anchored to God's truth, stay alert to challenges from without and within, stay faithful through the changing seasons of life, and stay focused until the race is finished. Using the story of a pilot who drifted only a few degrees off course and ended up an ocean away from his destination, this lesson shows that sincerity and activity alone are never enough. Only a life anchored to Jesus and his word arrives safely home.
