Middle Management Ministry: Why Aquila & Priscilla Make Apollos Dangerous by Pastor Tomas Bueno
Description
Raising the next generation is not a top-down project. It lives or dies in the middle. From Acts 18, Pastor Adam shows how Aquila and Priscilla quietly took Apollos aside and turned raw zeal into sharp effectiveness.
Along the way: Nokia vs. Toyota culture, Jethro’s counsel to Moses (Exodus 18), the tragedy of Judges 2, Titus 1 order, and a USS Wisconsin illustration on “recommissioning” veterans to train the new crew. This sermon calls gifted Apolloses to be teachable and seasoned Aquilas/Priscillas to re-engage.
Scriptures: Acts 18:24 –28; Exodus 18:17 –22; Acts 6:3–4; Romans 16:3–4; Judges 2:7–10; Titus 1:5; 1 Kings 12:8; Proverbs 20:5.
