The book of Acts found in your Bibles records for us the history of the early church and how God used ordinary people to build His kingdom. While we call it the “Acts of the Apostles” it would be more accurate to call it the “Acts of the Holy Spirit” as it was the Holy Spirit moving through, in, ...read more
