Great Reading -
 
 
Want a good book to read?  Try Michael Green's Thirty Years That Changed the World published by Eerdmans. Michael acknowledges that there are plenty of studies and commentaries already addressing the book of Acts but also does not want to asssume nothing has happend over the past 2000 years to irresponsively move from the writing of Acts to today's world.
 
Thirty Years is an easy to read book for anyone but a MUST read for pastors and church leaders.

Quotes:

"How did these few men, with their pitiful lack of education and resources, make such an effective impact on their civilization with the gospel while we, with far more going for us, are on the whole making so little? It is an intriguing question when you reflect that the two most natural ways for Christians to spread the gospel these days are through activities based on church buildings and through large rallies or crusades held in public places by famous preachers. Both of these expedients were denied the early Christians...The following pages will outline some of the ways they did it."

"These stand out in fairly sharp contrast to the procedures most modern churches are disposed to favour. But I have a feeling we could learn from them."
