Interpreting the Acts of the Apostles

About Interpreting the Acts of the Apostles

The Acts of the Apostles provides an authentic, inspired account of the spread of the early Christian church, giving focus to the themes of Witness to Jesus Christ and power in the Holy Spirit. The commission of Jesus Christ provides a key to understanding the book, "You shall receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you; and you shall be my witnesses both in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and even to the remotest part of the earth (Acts 1:8)." In this series, Bible teacher Michael Brent guides listeners through the structure and thought of Luke's narrative which serves as a context for defining and defending the gospel of Jesus Christ.
