Walking with the Spirit through Acts: Adult Class

Our class has ended! Praise God for his blessings and leading.

Pastor Michael taught a series on the Holy Spirit in the book of Acts. The index of lectures and overheads is below. We covered the entire book over the course of the class, with a focus on the work of the Holy Spirit in the lives of the men and women who followed him. Acts is a template for the kind of Spirit-filled life we desperately need in today’s materialistic world. The class will not only give you a deep understanding of Acts but will explain how we reach the life that God wants for us.

Michael Cranford is Pastor of Discipleship at Woodbridge Community Church. He is also Adjunct Professor of Philosophy at Concordia University in Irvine, California. He holds a Master of Divinity from Talbot School of Theology, and an M.A. and Ph.D. in Religion and Social Ethics from the University of Southern California.
