We're just getting our feet wet here in the book of Acts with pastor Jeff Johnson. This is an important historical book, because the Christian Church had its beginnings recorded here. When the Holy Spirit descended upon the believers on the day of Pentecost, it set in motion the wheels of an active, evangelistic Christian movement that later on in this book, swept up many a man and woman - including a certain man who came to be known as the Apostle Paul. Turn to the Book of Acts chapter one and join us. To support this ministry financially, visit: https://www.oneplace.com/donate/621/29
