Summary
The Book of Acts is the master narrative of early Christianity. Luke's innovative portrayal of what had gone before gave the nascent church the sense of direction it needed to find its provenance and purpose in history. In the course of nineteen studies, Knut Backhaus taps into new perspectives on Acts as a book that crosses cultural and religious thresholds.
