Acts 20:17-38

Paul spoke to the elders of the church of Ephesus reminding them of the example he had given while he was among them. He told them he was leaving and that they would face conflicts after he had gone, so they should commit themselves to God, remembering His word, and working hard to help the less fortunate.

More mature Christians can provide good advice for the issues that come up in each of our lives. Whatever challenge you are facing in your life, chances are they've gone through it already. By learning from those that have gone before us, we can avoid some unnecessary hardships. We only have to ask!
