Power to Live By: Studies from the Book of Acts is a 22-week series on the exciting beginnings of the early church. The positive and moving narrative traces the supernatural establishment of Christianity in Jerusalem and across the Roman world as it records the adventures of leaders like Peter and Paul. Some topics addressed are "Dealing With Life's Uncertainties," "Loving the Unlovable," "Victory When You Cannot Win" and "Facing the Enemies of Faith."

Note: The 4-week Philippians study, Joy, fits well at the end of the Acts study.
