Acts: Empowered for Jesus' Mission • Starting May 26th
From 2009–2011, Pastor Mark preached through Luke’s gospel in its entirety. This May, we’ll be exploring Luke’s second book, the book of Acts.
It opens with Jesus at his ascension, commissioning believers to be his witnesses throughout the whole world by the power of the Holy Spirit. For almost 2,000 years, this mission of Jesus has been unbroken and unhindered. Nothing has stopped the work of the Holy Spirit through God’s people—not persecution, not heresy, not apostasy—nothing. It is unlike any other movement in the history of the world.
Acts is an encouragement for the church today as Christians contend for the gospel of Jesus Christ. Over the next few years, we will study the entire book by looking at a section of chapters each year. Join us this May as we kick off our new sermon series exploring the first five chapters of the book of Acts.
Study Guide 
You can also pick up Acts Study Guide: Chapters 1–5, which goes along with the sermon series and includes daily devotions, a small group study, and a group inductive study.
