Presentation transcript:

1. We might be in awe of God as we see how He empowered the early followers of Christ though the Holy Spirit to preach, persevere through persecution, and then praise him.

2. We might, as a church, see how we ought to function as the church of God, the bride of Jesus from the example of the early followers.

3. We might, as individuals, be empowered by that same Holy Spirit to boldly proclaim the gospel and change the world.
