Reading From My Old New Bible: Acts Chapter 2

Acts 2 tells the story of the Holy Spirit's descent during Pentecost. The apostles were waiting in expectation after Jesus had just resurrected from the tomb and ascended to heaven. They had been told by him that when the Holy Spirit comes, they will become witnesses in Jerusalem, in Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.During the celebration, when crowds of Jews were present in Jerusalem, the Spirit came upon the apostles as tongues of fire, and they started proclaiming! Peter takes the lead and preaches the good news to the people present who were listening. He tells them about Jesus, his life, death, and resurrection. That very day, 3000 of them received this word in their hearts and were baptized. And from there we get a glimpse of the early church helping one another in unity under the Name of Jesus.This episode is a reading and reflection of that chapter in scripture.Music by Kayel MarceloPASSAGES / REFERENCES / RESOURCESActs 2ExodusFind all of Mon's links here: ⁠⁠https://linktr.ee/talkswithmon⁠(including how to book him as a speaker and how to support the show)
