MY REVIEW:

This book is so wonderful and I just couldn't put it down! I loved the whole concept and how easy it was to read and understand.

This book is all about the book of Acts in the Bible. This book is about the resurrection of Jesus, his appearances to people, and his teachings during this time. He speaks about the Holy Spirit, what he wants the disciples to do and then ascends into the heaven. After this, we see the Holy Spirit come upon the disciples in a miraculous way and then they go out and spread the Gospel as Jesus instructed.

Acts is just that; the acts of the disciples and followers of Christ. We see Saul persecute the believers and then come to Jesus himself in a most dramatic way. We follow them as they are persecuted for their belief and we learn so much of Jesus' teachings through this amazing book.

Another thing I loved about this book is the biographies and definitions given in the book. I especially love the pages about the Crucifixion and what it means. I learned so much from these few pages! The biographies were great, too, because they gave me an insight to the people I was reading about.

This book was so very easy to read. It would be great for a person who has never read the Bible or one who is a new Christian. I could definitely see using this book to bring others to Christ as it's just a very profound yet easily understood book. I just can't say enough good about it!

I highly recommend this book to everyone. It's a wonderful book, all very Biblical and written by a wonderful Bible teacher, David Jeremiah. It really is a must have book! I give this book 5 out of 5 stars.
