In this episode, Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley introduce the book of Acts and why they will be discussing it this season on Knowing Faith. They introduce who wrote the book, why it was written, and why it is important today. They also talk about whether we should still be casting lots to make our decisions.

Questions Covered in This Episode:

• Why Acts?
• What is historical narrative?
• Who wrote this, who did they write it to, when was it written?
• In Acts 1, we end with Jesus leaving...why is Jesus leaving? Where is he going? 

How does he leave? Why does this matter?
