Sermon Notes
Acts, Part 13 / Fully Surrendered Life / Acts 20:16-38
As we close out the book of Acts, this message challenges us to move beyond a strong start in faith and instead live a fully surrendered life to Jesus. Looking at Paul’s farewell in Acts 20, we see a powerful example of serving with humility and courage, continually turning back to God, and following the Holy Spirit with obedience—even when it’s difficult. A surrendered life means letting go of comfort and pride so we can fully trust God’s will and direction. Ultimately, this passage calls us to faithfully persevere to the end, knowing that a life fully given to Jesus is the only one that truly satisfies.
