Ever wondered why the early church spent so much time at the temple, even though they were following Jesus? In this session, we look at Acts 3-7 and how the followers of Jesus were actually trying to restore the heart of Israel.
We look into the story of the lame man healed at the "Beautiful Gate" and see how this was a sign that God's life was breaking back into the world. But as the church grows, so does the tension. We’ll see why the religious leaders were so bothered by Peter’s message and how the apostles stayed bold even after their arrest.
