The Acts of the Apostles was written by Luke, a companion of Paul, and the author of the Gospel According to Luke (see Episodes 333-335).
The book is essentially Volume Two of his Gospel and records a selective history of the early church following the resurrection and ascension of Jesus.
In this episode, we cover the first nine chapters which includes: Jesus' ascension, Peter's Sermon at Pentecost, the Holy Spirit, miracles performed by the apostles, two arrests, the martyrdom of Stephen, an introduction to Saul (the persecutor) and his conversion on the road to Damascus.
