0:00.0	Welcome to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace.
0:03.0	My name is Kristen.
0:04.0	And my name is Katie.
0:06.0	And we want to spend a few minutes a day with you walking through the New Testament, one chapter at a time.
0:11.0	This year, we will fix our gaze upon Christ so that we may know Him, not only with our minds, but with our hearts.
0:18.0	Together, we will learn that who Jesus is changes everything.
0:22.6	Hey, hey, welcome to a year in the Bible with Daily Grace. My name is Katie, and today is an exciting day.
0:29.6	We are moving on from the Gospels and studying the book of Acts. We have been in the Gospels for months now, and now we have a great foundation for
0:40.5	which to move into Acts, which will give us an historical record of the early church. As we set the
0:47.6	stage for Acts, I do have a question for you. Do you have a favorite book or movie series?

1:24.6	While the Gospel of Luke shares all that Jesus began to do and teach, the book of Acts
1:31.2	shares the continuation of Jesus' ministry by the Holy Spirit, working in the Apostles or the early
1:38.5	founders of the church. And Luke and Acts also share the main character, Jesus. Though we will read about Peter and Paul and many other disciples in Acts, Jesus is still the main character just as he is the main character of each gospel we have read. So before we dive in officially, who is the author of Acts? Just like the Gospel of Luke, technically, the book is written anonymously.
2:04.2	But church tradition points to Luke, the dearly loved physician, as referenced by Paul in
2:10.5	Colossians 414.
2:12.6	He writes the book to a man named Theophilus, the same recipient of his gospel.
