Publisher's Description
The disciples and early Christians faced doubt, opposition, and threats--just like many Christians do today. In Together with the World, Michael Wagenman shows how the book of Acts can help modern Christians respond to crisis and critique in our contemporary world. The book of Acts is about more than simply the beginning of church history. In Together for the World we find a group of disciples, empowered by the Holy Spirit, following God's call to spread the good news.

“Michael Wagenman introduces the Book of Acts in a lively, informative and accessible manner. He gives us a comprehensive overview of the historical and cultural background, an exploration of key characters and themes, and an engaging discussion of the dynamics of power in relation to suffering and conflict experienced in the early church. There is helpful material on the mission of the church in relation to the mission or Kingdom of God. The work will be useful to those preparing to preach or lead studies on Acts. Above all, the book does what any good introductory study should--it makes one want to delve once again into the text of Acts itself.”
