About the Author: Matthew L.
Suited for individual and group study, this Book by a New Testament scholar with a gift for popular communication asks serious questions and eschews pat answers, bringing Acts alive for contemporary reflection on the character of God, the challenges of faith, and the church.
The Book emphasizes the Disruptive character of the Christian gospel and shows how Acts repeatedly describes God as upsetting the status quo by changing people\'s lives, society\'s conventions, and our basic expectations of what\'s possible.
