The Acts of Apostles
Who were the apostles? Ordinary people who performed extraordinary acts for the kingdom of God.
Meet Peter, a coward turned warrior for Christ: willing to die for his Lord. Meet John, an everyday fisherman who dropped a stable career to follow Jesus to the ends of the earth. Meet Paul, a bitter skeptic turned passionate believer who shared the Gospel with everyone he met. In times of uncertainty, fear, and persecution, they gave themselves to an eternal vision and leaned into it with uncommon resolve.
The apostles of the past carried on God’s vision to apostles of the present. Their story is one we are still writing. Two thousand years later, our calling remains the same – to share the hope and grace of Jesus with others.
Apostles are ordinary people who perform extraordinary acts for the kingdom of God.
Look around, they are everywhere. The college student who is trying to share the Gospel with his dorm mates. The stay at home mom who becomes the hands and feet of Jesus as she cares for her kids. The blue-collar worker who is working hard to provide for his family while earnestly seeking to live a God-honoring life. The CEO who is trying to be a person of faith in a culture of the bottom line. They’re normal people, but the outcome of their lives is anything but normal.
Who are apostles? We are.
