In Acts 10, the apostle Peter is deeply wrestling with the Gentile "issue". Through prayer, fasting and corroborating visions, Peter is obedient to Jesus' direction.

Phillip, in tandem with the Spirit of God, shows us some practical ways to point others to Jesus.

Only Jesus can take rebels at heart and help them rebel the right way. In Acts 4, Peter boldly and continuously puts the spotlight on Jesus and the name of Jesus. The more the pressure him to stop, the more he rebels against the ways of the world.

In Acts 4, the apostle Peter bold proclaims that "there is salvation given unto people under heaven by which they must be saved."

Jesus has risen from the dead. Listen to how Jesus empowers His disciples to do great works of healing.

God's deal with Moses and Israel in the book of Exodus

in Exodus, God delivers the 10 commandments to the people of Israel. Far from a story of harsh judgment, the Bible shows us that God delivers grace to the people in the form of covenant, even in their disobedience.
