Unstoppable: Power, Promise, and Purpose Acts 1:1-4

In this opening message in the book of Acts, we explore the historical foundation, authorship, and purpose of the early church’s story. Written around A.D. 61 by Luke—the beloved physician and companion of Paul—Acts records real events about a real Savior who truly rose from the dead.

Walking through Acts of the Apostles 1:1–11, we examine Luke’s address to Theophilus, the continuation of Jesus’ earthly ministry, the 40 days of post-resurrection appearances, and Christ’s command to wait for the promised Holy Spirit. This passage reminds us that what Jesus began, He is still doing—now through His Spirit and His Church.

Discover why waiting on God matters, how the Holy Spirit empowers believers, and why the mission to be Christ’s witnesses—“to the end of the earth”—is still our calling today.
Because Jesus is alive, His mission is unstoppable.
