In this episode, Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley are back to looking at the book of Acts, specifically Acts 3-5. They discuss what happens after Pentecost as we begin to see miraculous healings and the central role of Peter making connections between Christ and the fulfillment of the Old Testament. Through their discussion, they talk about the early Church—is it perfect? Is it the ideal church?

Questions Covered in This Episode:

• All throughout Acts we see miraculous healings, what are we to make of these?
• Does God still heal? Like this?
• Are we seeing Christianity break away from Judaism this early?
• Let’s discuss the sustained, fervent, and urgent prayer in Acts 4:23-31.
• What is happening in Acts 5:1-11?
• God just strikes them dead...who is this God?
• Is Sapphira righteous to submit to her husband?
• What is the principal roadblock for the Jewish leaders in the Apostolic witness?
• What is the significance of Gamaliel’s counsel?
