| 0:00.0 | Hi friends, I am Annie F Downs. Let's read the Gospels. Well, let's read what happened right after the Gospels. |
| 0:08.0 | The Gospels are the first four books of the New Testament in the Bible, Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. |
| 0:12.0 | These are the stories of Jesus Christ |
| 0:14.3 | life on earth, the friendships, the parables, the sacrifices, the meals, the miracles. |
| 0:19.2 | And the Book of Acts picks up right where the Gospels ends and takes us into the birth of the church, the |

| 1:14.0 | He explained the prophecies and proved that the Messiah must suffer and rise from the dead. |
| 1:18.6 | He said, this Jesus I'm telling you about is the Messiah. |
| 1:23.2 | Some of the Jews who listened were persuaded and joined |
| 1:25.7 | Paul and Silas, along with many God-fearing Greek men |
| 1:29.0 | and quite a few prominent women. |
| 1:31.3 | But some of the Jews were jealous, so they gathered some troublemakers from the marketplace to form a mob and start a riot. |
| 1:37.0 | They attacked the home of Jason, searching for Paul and Silas, so they could drag them out to the crowd. |
