The Book of Acts is perhaps the most high-stakes, action-packed narrative in the entire Biblical canon. It begins in the shadowed tension of a Jerusalem upper room and ends in the heart of the most powerful empire the world has ever known. Yet, for many readers, this bridge between the life of Jesus and the letters of the New Testament remains a collection of disconnected Sunday school stories, a bit of Peter here, a dash of Paul there, and a few miraculous escapes in between. This book, The 4-Hour Apostle, is designed to change that.

Poured out like a mighty rushing wind (Acts 2:2), the Spirit empowered the Apostles’ witness and opened hearts to believe. In this volume, Dr. R.C. Sproul offers an in-depth study on the Spirit’s work through these Christians and in the growth and spread of the early church.
