The Book of Acts from a Layperson's Perspective: Commentaries for Small-Group or Individual Study (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781961265820)

As a verse-by-verse compilation of commentaries and personal impressions of St. Luke's writings in the Holy Bible's book of Acts, The Book of Acts from a Layperson's Perspective is written for laypeople from a layperson's point of view; it is not a scholarly dissertation requiring a PhD in order to comprehend it.

The Book of Acts from a Layperson's Perspective offers a simplicity in its presentation without being simple, providing curious readers the opportunity to appreciate Acts as an early-Christian history book as they discover the episodes and events surrounding Paul, Peter, and other believers, whether in a small-group Bible study or individually.

The book is unique as it reveals the author's thoughts, ideas, and questions. It stimulates the reader to imagine being in situations and scenarios with Paul or Peter and asking, "What would I have done; How would I have reacted?"
