A Model Ministry Partnership

Commentators highlight Prisca and Aquila as a 'splendid image of Christian married life.' They were Paul's partners not just in their trade (tent-making) but in the gospel. They traveled for the mission, hosted a church in their home, discipled influential leaders like Apollos, and supported Paul's ministry, showing how marriage can be a powerful partnership for Christ.
