Acts of the Apostles (Book 44/66) – A Book on the History of the Church

Luke wrote the book of Acts, also called Acts of the Apostles and records the early church's formation and expansion through the apostles' preaching and the Holy Spirit's power. It emphasizes the spread of the gospel from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth through missionary journeys by the apostles who started churches in various cities. These cities became the focal point of the letters written to them over the following 13 books. The account of the early church's mission and growth highlights the role of the Holy Spirit in empowering believers to continue Jesus' work.
