Acts — the Blurb
My first attempt at a blur for my book on Acts and the Movement of God. Happy to get feedback.
There’s no other book like Acts. It ties together the coming of Jesus and his continuing mission through his Spirit-empowered disciples. Acts is a book about the unchanging God. Its relevance cannot be confined to the past.
Acts is about the spread of the Word in the power of the Spirit from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth fulfilling the Father’s plan through the crucified and victorious Lord Jesus.
Embattled witnesses triumph through trials and establish communities of disciples in ever widening circles radiating out from Jerusalem.
The church in every generation must return to the book of Acts and find renewal in its identity and mission or risk being swept away by the spirit of the age.
