The Story of His Church

Risen, ascended, and promising His return, Jesus’ people remain for a purpose. Preach the Gospel of His kingdom, baptize those who believe, make disciples, and plant churches. For a small eclectic group of disciples more closely resembling the Island of Misfit Toys than The Avengers, this is a weighty commission with little chance of success without divine empowerment. The fearful faithful gathered in Jerusalem and God the Holy Spirit came upon them. Former cowards become bold preachers and many thousands begin to believe. This new community thrives in Jerusalem but begins to meet persecution. Fleeing harm, Christians begin to scatter and with them the gospel spreads. Met by Jesus one of the chief persecutors becomes an unlikely convert and becomes a powerful missionary planting churches across the known world.
