In this study, we look at how God poured out His Holy Spirit on the Gentiles and how the church in Judea began to come to terms with the fact that salvation was in fact, for the gentiles as well as the Jews.

In this study, we look at how God prepared Peter to open the door for the Gospel to spread to the Gentiles. In the process we see how God chooses to use ordinary men and women to minister to His children no matter who they are, or where they are.

In this study, we look at when Saul finally went back to Jerusalem to meet Peter and how he was originally rejected by the church leaders in Jerusalem.
