Free Reading Plans and Devotionals related to Acts 17:27

An exciting look at the birth of the early church, through the eyes of Luke, the author of the gospel of Luke. This series combines video clips from the movie, The Book of Acts, with thought-provoking questions for reflection, discussion and practical life application.

The book of Acts shows us how God used the disciples in the days after Jesus’ ascension to impact the world with the power of the Gospel message. We hope as you read, you’ll realize we are also called to be witnesses to the gospel of Jesus Christ and empowered with the Holy Spirit to go into this world.

Because Peter and the other apostles knew Jesus not only as Savior, but also as teacher, leader, mentor, and friend, they became effective leaders in the early Church drawing continually on Jesus’ words, the example He set, and the experience they gained under His earthly leadership to advance God’s Kingdom by advancing the Gospel. 

The book of Acts reveals the power of God at work through the Apostles and other individuals who would turn the world upside down with the Christian movement. This study will help you understand the importance of the Holy Spirit at work in your life and recognize that God’s children can do the extraordinary work of Jesus Christ when yielded to his will and power.

He is a near God who hears our prayers and is attentive. Dive in and draw closer to God than ever before.

In the quiet place that you have chosen for your time alone with God every day, there are steps you can take to develop the habit of “perfect peace” in your life. Each day there will be a verse from the Bible along with seven Scriptural principles.

What is God like? It’s a big question but an important one. What we understand about God will determine how we relate to Him. The more we know about God, the better our relationship will be. God reveals who He is throughout the Bible. Every name for God tells us something about Him. Reflect on God’s character for the next 21 days and see how your love for Him grows.
