The Book of Acts
A book study — 26 lessons · New Testament
Luke’s second volume sets before us the birth and growth of the Lord’s church — from the ascension of Christ and the coming of the Spirit at Pentecost, through the bold preaching of the apostles, the conversions of Jew and Gentile, and the missionary journeys that carried the gospel from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth. This twenty-six-lesson study walks through Acts in order, showing the pattern of New Testament conversion and the steady advance of the gospel “unhindered” even in the face of opposition. Each lesson includes a matching teacher’s guide.
Teachers: Each lesson has a matching Teacher's Guide with discussion notes, suggested answers, and supplementary cross-references.
