The Riot in Ephesus Kids’ Bible Stories

Description

Step into the bustling, vibrant city of Ephesus, a world of gleaming marble streets, the salty smell of the sea, and the magnificent Temple of Artemis! But when a man named Paul arrives with a powerful message of God’s love, the city begins to change. As people turn from magic to faith, not everyone is happy.

For Demetrius the silversmith, whose hands craft beautiful silver shrines of the goddess Artemis, Paul’s words mean trouble. His business is failing, and his anger is growing. What begins as a secret meeting in a stuffy room soon explodes into a city-wide riot!

Feel the ground tremble as a furious mob shouting, “Great is Artemis of the Ephesians!” storms through the marketplace, capturing two of Paul’s friends. Journey with them into the giant theater, where thousands of confused and angry people shout for hours. In a city swallowed by chaos, can one wise man’s voice bring peace?

This action-packed story, filled with the sights, sounds, and smells of an ancient city on the edge, brings to life a dramatic tale of faith, greed, and the courage to stand firm when the whole world seems to be shouting against you.
