1. Although we might view the end of Paul's life as unjust, what opportunities does he have to speak to people as a result of his imprisonment?
2. How do you see the Spirit continuing to work in Paul's life in his journey to Rome?
3. What is the tone of the ending of Acts?
4. How does the ending of Acts contrast with the beginning of Acts in 1:6? How are God's plans different from men's?

Paul continues to have amazing opportunities to speak to people right to the end, even while being shipwrecked. Although he walks into danger, the Spirit is still guiding him, warning him, and encouraging him, helping him to run the race God set for him to the end. The book ends on a triumphal tone, still in God's hands despite it being very different from what the disciples anticipated in the beginning.
