  15. and with all your soul and with all your mind
  16. This is the first and greatest commandment.
  17. And the second is like it Love your neighbor as
  18. yourself. Now, if you go to our YouTube channel, you
  19. conceive videos of us practicing the sign language and science
  20. for these Bible verses.
  21. So now we're gonna pray.
  22. Lord Jesus, you are the image of the invisible God.
  23. You are the resurrection of the life.
  24. Please teach us how to love you and our neighbors.
  25. Amen. That is a lot of Bible versus we memorized,
  26. by the way.
  27. So great job, everybody.
  28. So now we're going to do our Bible story.
  29. Our Bible story is about a lady named Priscilla.
  30. And so here is how it starts.
  31. One day, Salt traveled to a city called Korans to
  32. go tell more people about Jesus.
  33. When he was there, he met a married couple named
  34. Aquila and Priscilla.
  35. There were Christians from the city of Rome and they
  36. became friends with Saul.
  37. They started teaching people about Jesus together, and they started
  38. working together to because they all each had a second
  39. job. Besides teaching people about Jesus, which was that they
  40. made tense booth, you know that eventually Solve decided to
  41. leave Corrine and Priscilla Nakoula went with him When they
  42. got to a city called F Assists, Priscilla and Aquila
  43. hopped off the ship and stayed there to share the
  44. good news.
  45. News of Jesus with the people and song went on
  46. without them.
  47. So one day in ethicists Priscilla follow into the synagogue,
  48. the place of worship for Jewish people.
  49. There was a man named to Paulose there, and he
  50. came up to the front and he started talking.
  51. But he didn't say what everyone, they're expected him to
  52. say. He started talking about Jesus.
  53. Priscilla and Aquila thought, Wow, he's doing a great job.
  54. This is amazing a menace.
  55. He kept talking.
  56. They were like, Oh, no, this guy Apollos is missing
  57. some really important parts of the story.
  58. Priscilla and Aquila took Apollo society and said, Hey, we
  59. need to talk to you And they explained the whole
  60. story of Jesus to him because he was missing some
  61. important stuff.
  62. What follows is probably glad that they helped him, but
  63. maybe embarrassed to after that he was able to tell
  64. the whole story about Jesus just right whenever he shared
  65. the good news, thanks to Priscilla and Aquila.
  66. Now, at the end of his letters to churches and
  67. pastors saw what often mention other people who were with
  68. him, wanted to say hi or people who he wanted
  69. to say hi to.
  70. So it would be like writing a letter to your
  71. cousins. And at the end, if you write, say hi
  72. to Aunt Maria in three of Saul's letters, that's the
  73. kind of thing that saw, says Ah, he wrote to
  74. the Christians in Rome and his friend Timothy.
  75. He wouldn't in those letters, he wrote Say hi to
  76. Priscilla Nicola.
  77. And in one of his letters to the Christians in
  78. the city of Corinth, he wrote, Hey, Priscilla, Nicole are
  79. here with me.
  80. They say Hi.
  81. So Priscilla and Aquila were important in Saul's life at
  82. work, and they were all friends.
  83. This certain serves Jesus together, and maybe that doesn't seem
  84. like a big deal to us.
  85. But it was a really big deal back then, because
  86. Solid doesn't just say that he worked with Aquila or
  87. that Aquila top people about Jesus.
  88. No, he always mentions Priscilla, and her name usually gets
  89. mentioned first, and it sounds like she's doing a lot
  90. of the teaching about Jesus, too.
  91. And back then, women weren't teachers, and even a lot
  92. of Christians didn't think women should be teaching, either because
  93. of women like Priscilla, though nowadays we have a lot
  94. of women who teach the Bible like this.
  95. Amy and I miss Sam.
  96. When she preaches of the service, it seems normal to
  97. us, and that's a good thing, because anyone who belongs
  98. to Jesus can share the good news about him.
  99. So what did you guys think about the story?
  100. Had you ever heard of Priscilla before or where she
  101. knew? Do you share your thoughts and questions with us?
  102. Let us know how you're doing.
  103. And if you missed virtual VBS, don't worry.
  104. All the videos air still in our playlist and on
  105. the church website.
  106. So you can follow the links at the bottom to
  107. our YouTube playlist, if you'd like to.
  108. It was great going through acts with you guys this
  109. summer. And if nothing else, I hope you heard some
  110. news stories you've never heard before from the Bible.
  111. So let's do our closing blessing as we end.
  112. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ and the
  113. love of God on the Fellowship of the Holy Spirit
  114. be with us all now and forever.
