The Gospel Project for Adults: The Spirit Who Empowers - Bible Study Book: A Gospel-Centered Exploration of Acts (The Gospel Project (TGP))

The Spirit Who Empowers Bible Study Book includes a small-group experience for six sessions, applicable Scripture, and individual study created for personal discipleship. Just before Jesus’ ascension He instructed His followers to wait in Jerusalem for the Holy Spirit, Who would empower them. Soon after, the disciples began proclaiming Jesus as Lord and Savior. They did miracles in His name and declared the gospel with confidence. They and all the followers of Christ gave freely to all in need. They witnessed to others and welcomed believers into God’s family regardless of their ethnicity. They faced persecution and death. Truly they had been empowered. Session Titles: 1.
