Feel Free Read ACTS ALIVE - Chapters 1-12: Our Heritage and HIS STORY PDF
Devotional and teaching supplement. In 1973, our family took a vacation. We travelled by road to Cairns in Far North Queensland, pulling a caravan (travel trailer). Each night as we lay in our sleeping bags in the caravan, our mother would read aloud from the Book of Acts. I was 13 and had been raised going to Sunday School, but never in my life had I heard these stories. I knew all about David and Goliath, Noah’s Ark and Joseph in Egypt. I could tell you how Jesus fed the 5,000, healed the sick and raised the dead. But who were “these” men and women? What was this “power of the Holy Ghost?” When did “this” happen, and “how come” I hadn’t heard of this? It fascinated me. I believe it was about that time God put a hunger in my heart to know Him more. I have loved, studied and taught the Book of Acts ever since”.As we study Acts we become acquainted with many wonderful men and women of God. We feel their heartbeat, we see their humanity and we will go with them as they are thrown into prison, endure shipwreck and suffer for the Name of Jesus. We will learn as they did, that when we are at the end of ourselves, His grace truly is sufficient.
