In this episode of 'New Testament in a Year,' we delve into Acts chapters 1-3. We explore the continuation of Luke's Gospel, focusing on the growth of the early Christian community through the roles of St. Peter and St. Paul. Key events include the selection of a successor for Judas, the coming of the Holy Spirit at Pentecost, and Peter's powerful speech. We also witness miraculous healings and learn about the early communal life and teachings that laid the foundation for the Church. Join us as we uncover the powerful beginnings of the Christian mission.
