Reading the Gospels and Acts

Welcome to the heart of the New Testament. In this video, we’ll explore how the Gospels present four complementary portraits of Jesus and how Acts continues his work through the Holy Spirit and the early church. You’ll see how the Old Testament shapes the story of Jesus and how the gospel spreads from Jerusalem to the ends of the earth.
