Acts

Acts---resized

From February 14 to September 11, 2016, Pastor Brian preached through the book of Acts. This book of the Bible picks up where the Gospel of Luke leaves off. It begins with Jesus’ ascension and to heaven and ends, roughly thirty years later, with Paul preaching the gospel in Rome. This book teaches us what God did in those years, how the apostles told others about Jesus, and how the early Christians figured out how to include both Jews and Gentiles into the one people of God, among many other things.
