Episode description

The Acts of the Apostles is the epic sequel to Luke's Gospel. 

It follows the dramatic events immediately after the resurrection of Jesus, and follows how the first Christians - led by perhaps the most unlikely person - took the news of the Messiah to the edges of the Roman Empire - and beyond.
