Seek and Find God
As I’ve stated in my earlier reflections on the book of Acts, the book has two primary sections. The way, Luke, the author of the Gospel according to Luke and the book of Acts, wrote this letter based on two primary people: Peter and Paul. Each section focuses on one of these two Apostles. The […]
Encouragement Within Tribulations
In this section of the book of Acts, starting in chapter 12, the narrative is now shifting from Peter, as the primary character, to Paul until the end of the book. In other words, Luke, the author of this book, as well as the Gospel according to Luke, stops talking about Peter in chapter 12 […]
The Supernatural
In this reflection, we look at Acts 10, as a continuation of our study series on the Book of Acts. From my previous article in the series, it looks like we’re skipping chapters 5 through 9. But, let me give you some background to help you not feel like missing what’s going on in those […]
The Praying Church
This article is a reflection based on Acts 4, which is the continuation of our study series of the Book of Acts. To make sense of what’s going on in chapter 4, you will need to review chapter 3. In fact, you should also take a look at chapter 2 (part one and part two) […]
God: The Author of Life
In this article, we reflect on Acts 3. I won’t discuss all the verses, but just a few, and primarily verses 11 through 16. You may also have to review our previous reflections on the Book of Acts (chapter 1, chapter 2 – Part One, and chapter 2 – Part Two), which will be very […]
The Church
This reflection draws on Acts 2:42-47, as we continue with our study on the Book of Acts, They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer. Everyone was filled with awe at the many wonders and signs performed by the apostles. All the believers were together and had everything in […]
Pentecost Power
This reflection is the second in our study of the book of Acts. You need to review, God’s Power, My Purpose, God’s Plan, which was the first article in this series. Read Acts 2: 1-13, which is the foundation for this reflection. Let me point out that the book of Acts has two major parts: […]
God’s Power, My Purpose, and God’s Plan
This reflection series is based on the book of Acts. That means for the next weeks, we will be learning the book of Acts, and how what we learn can help us be the kind of Christians God wants us to be. In this specific article, we will use Acts 1 as our foundation. Read […]
Sent Forth Into the World
The vitality of all our communities of faith lies in the understanding that Church is who we all are Monday through Saturday, and beyond our Church building walls. When you read the four gospels, which are the primary sources of what we need to know about Jesus’ life and ministry, nowhere did the Son of […]
Called to Share the Story
There are a ton of books out there talking about how to share the story of our faith. A common word is “witness.” Scholars, preachers, and speakers, all talk about this subject. A lot of thinkers say that the decline of our Churches resides in the inability of our Church people to witness their faith. […]
