THEME: LESSONS FROM THE EARLY CHURCH.
This series explores the church in its infancy, just after Jesus ascends and leaves the disciples to carry the baton.
But he didn't leave them alone. He would send the Holy Spirit, and through the Holy Spirit, the early church received the words and power to share the Gospel with the world.
