Dear <<First name>>,

In yesterday's reading, the Jerusalem church grew from a handful of people to several thousand — which was bound to catch someone's attention.
 
And so it does. Many of the same religious leaders who opposed Jesus now sense a new threat. So they tighten the screws. But the crackdown backfires in a big way...



Today we'll read pages 64-75 from Luke-Acts.  
Read until “…continued to spread and flourish.”

Enjoy the journey,

P.S. By now you've probably met with your small group at least once. Remember to treat these discussions more like a book club than a traditional Bible study. Resist the urge to get hung up on debates over interpretation. Instead, give your fellow travelers space to react to the story as they experience it.
