0:00.0	Hello, my friends. Welcome to Follow Him. My name is Hank Smith, and I'm here with the Pentecostal John, by the way.
0:11.4	John Pentecostal, baptized by the Spirit, speaking in tongues, I thought of you.
0:16.8	I would love to have one of those days that I could describe like a day of Pentecost.
0:21.2	Yeah, filled with the Holy Ghost. John, what do you think it would be like for those 11 apostles?
0:26.2	Jesus has been crucified and has been resurrected. Their world has changed.
0:31.9	What do we do now? Is there a general handbook of instructions? What are we supposed to do now?
0:37.4	It was great, but are we done? What do we do? They have a whole world in front of them, but that they don't know what to do with, I guess.
0:43.8	Exactly. What is the Elder Holland quote?
0:47.4	These 11 Galilee and Fisherman and a handful of other disciples are going to change the world.
0:53.7	It's a good thing, John, that we have a Bible expert here with us today.
0:58.0	His name is Stefan Tanger. Welcome, Dr. Tanger.
1:01.3	Hi. How's it going? Good. Good. What do you think it was like for those 11 apostles and other disciples?
1:07.4	You know, it must have been extremely difficult and trying to figure out what direction they should take, how to lead this movement that Jesus started, how to carry on the kingdom of God.
1:17.4	On my mission in Las Vegas, a movie came out. It was actually a DVD for our younger viewers. That's a circular thing that actually plays movies.
1:25.2	And it was called Finding Faith in Christ. And it showed the life ministry, death and resurrection of Jesus.
1:31.6	And missionary friend, he actually showed the DVD to an investigator and very sincerely without trying to be sarcastic.
1:39.3	The investigator asked the missionary a question that was unintentionally extremely profound.
1:44.5	It was actually more of a statement. He said, it's a shame that Jesus had to leave because we could really use him in our world today.
1:53.3	And what the book of Acts is going to do is it's going to show us how the Savior continues his ministry in our world post his mortal ministry.
2:02.3	What does it look like for him for Jesus to continue to do his work in our world now?
2:07.6	And so that's what the book of Acts is going to teach us.
2:09.6	Beautiful. Elder Holland once said the location of the Savior had been altered, but the direction and leadership of the church were exactly the same.
