The book’s full name is the Acts of the Apostles, for it recounts their efforts to take the gospel to the nations. Yet we can also think of it as the Acts of the Holy Spirit. Poured out like a mighty rushing wind (Acts 2:2), the Spirit empowered the Apostles’ witness and opened hearts to believe. In this volume, Dr. R.C. Sproul offers an in-depth study on the Spirit’s work through these Christians and in the growth and spread of the early church.

In the wake of this popular movement, some Christians have vehemently opposed the New Age (and/or New Thought) behind this philosophy.

The theme that ties all of James' thoughts together is a demand for reality in your faith. He insists faith shall be proven or tested by works. Character should correspond to profession. "Practice what you preach". He provides for us a series of tests in which we can examine and measure the faith we profess. James is straightforward, simple, specific, and extremely challenging. In fact, there are more imperatives in this book (54 in 108 verses) than any other epistle. James, like his brother Jesus, will challenge us in this study to begin thinking about the world in an entirely different ...
