Beginning this episode, we are starting a new series on the Antioch Podcast looking at the book of Acts. It is the story of how the Holy Spirit took a mono-ethnic group of followers of Jesus (who could all fit into a second-floor apartment) to a multi-ethnic religious community capable of withstanding the centuries-long persecution of an imperial empire. How is this even possible? This episode begins this series with a look at the seeds of this diverse, justice-seeking community in the second chapter of Acts.

NOTE: Regular listeners will notice that we are missing cover art and links. This week the podcast has been struck with a series of computer viruses, which are being attended to. We pray that soon all things are restored. Until then, this “stripped down” version of the podcast is the best we can do. Our apologies for this inconvienience.
