(3.63) | 1 | A 1991 Christianity Today Readers' Choice AwardThe Spirit moves the church into the world. That is how it has always been since the day of Pentecost when the Spirit brought thousands from many countries into the body of Christ. With the breadth and scholarly care that have marked John Stott's years of ministry, this book opens to us the early days of the church as recorded by Luke in the book of Acts.The experiences of the early church have much to say about issues that concern Christians today.

As Stott concludes, "The Acts of the Apostles have long ago finished; the acts of the followers of Jesus will continue until the end of the world."… (mehr) |
