Accessible Exposition of Acts 1–8 Shows How God’s Mission Continues After Christ’s Ascension, Through Ordinary Believers, by the Power of the Holy Spirit In their eagerness to share the gospel, modern churches can focus on the wrong things, such as political influence, attendance numbers, or ministry techniques. This is nothing new. In the book of Acts, even Jesus’s disciples wondered which of these earthly methods he would use to establish God’s kingdom. But Jesus taught his followers then—and continues to teach us today—how the church, empowered by the Holy Spirit, will take the gospel to the nations.In this accessible exposition of Acts 1–8, Iain Duguid explores the continuing work of Jesus after the ascension. Drawing practical lessons from the life of the early church, as well as his own 30 years as a church planter, Duguid encourages believers today toward gospel-driven, Spirit-filled mission. In a culture that is increasingly hostile toward Christianity, Turning the World Upside Down equips ordinary Christians to witness to the eternal power of the gospel. Edifying: Challenges believers to take seriously the Great Commission, and grow in their knowledge and love for the gospel and one anotherComprehensive: Explores how believers can carry on God’s mission through the power of the Holy Spirit, faithful prayer, fellowship, and moreA Great Resource for Small Groups, Sunday School Classes, or Individual Study

Iain Duguid’s Thoughtful Exposition of Acts 9–18 Explores How God Uses Unexpected People to Advance the Gospel in Unexpected PlacesSaul’s conversion, from persecutor of Christians to witness for Christ, helped catapult the Great Commission. Boldly taking God’s message of undeserved grace throughout Jerusalem and beyond, he and the disciples saw the number of believers surge, particularly among Gentiles. Examining Acts 9–18, Iain Duguid offers new insights on this pivotal period in early church history. A companion to his book Turning the World Upside Down, which explores Acts 1–8, this volume follows the continued progress of the gospel and the perseverance of the saints. Duguid explains how God’s grace replaced Jewish laws concerning kosher food and circumcision. He also studies themes of judgment, healing, and the unexpected people God chooses to establish his church. As readers work through the text, they will gain a strong understanding of Christian history and God’s will for the body of Christ. Conversational and Insightful: This book offers practical, passage-by-passage exposition of Acts 9–18Comprehensive: Explains biblical themes including God’s church, healing, Old Testament covenants, deliverance, God’s resurrection power, the gifts of the Spirit, and idolatryAn Accessible Study Resource: Suitable for thoughtful Christians as well as pastors
