How did the early church overcome its challenges and what does that mean for us today? Join us as we embark on a captivating journey through the Book of Acts, starting with an introduction to its major themes and the pivotal role of the Holy Spirit in spreading the gospel from Jerusalem to Rome. We explore the authorship of Acts, traditionally attributed to Luke, and dive into his motivations and the historical value of his detailed records. Despite minor discrepancies, Luke’s firsthand experiences offer an invaluable window into the early Christian church, setting the stage for an enriching exploration of our faith's roots.
In this episode, we also highlight essential resources to enhance your journey through Acts. Discover the power of tools like Church Connect and insightful Bible Project videos, which provide a foundational understanding of the book’s themes. Additionally, we share a YouVersion Bible reading plan designed to guide you through Acts in 28 days.
