Hank Smith: Follow Him is back with Dr. Mike Goodman, the RSC's Associate Publications Director. Last week we looked at our little Christian church growing and meeting serious persecution. We're looking at Acts, chapters 10 through 15 in this week's lesson. Hank: What do you think is on the docket for ourlittle Christian church here? John: I think there's some bigger things on the horizon than maybe they saw.
How does understanding God's nature help us understand missionary work and priesthood authority? Dr. Michael Goodman explores the expanding Church, Peter's growth, and God's prophetic pattern for teaching His children.
