“The Book of Acts” Sunday School Lesson Series

Take your students on a journey through the Book of Acts where they will learn lessons from the early church after Jesus ascended to heaven and believers received the gift of the Holy Spirit.  Students will learn how they too can live a powerful life serving Jesus as the Holy Spirit empowers them.
