Acts 14:21-23

Good News Translation

The Return to Antioch in Syria

²¹ Paul and Barnabas preached the Good News in Derbe and won many disciples. Then they went back to Lystra, to Iconium, and on to Antioch in Pisidia. ²² They strengthened the believers and encouraged them to remain true to the faith. “We must pass through many troubles to enter the Kingdom of God,” they taught. ²³ In each church they appointed elders, and with prayers and fasting they commended them to the Lord, in whom they had put their trust.
