Book of Acts PPT


I was anxious to review the PowerPoint show for ACTS because I plan to teach the study in 2017. The background chosen for the opening was really fresh and engaging. The animation for the introduction timeline using three or four slides was in-depth and informative. The timeline is a perfect teaching tool for Acts. Five major themes are listed for Acts. Under the Gospel theme there are eight speeches with Bible references. A unique slide for Missions compares Jesus and the Holy Spirit as they extend their influence into the world. A very instructive chart shows parallel actions by Peter and Paul the main leaders in Acts. The three divisions for the book of Acts are Mission to Jerusalem Chapters 1-7, Mission to Judea & Samaria Chapters 8-10 and Mission to the Gentiles Chapters 11-28. Slides show the step-by-step  conversion and ministry of Paul. Detailed are his three missionary journeys and other journeys prefaced by opening slide of the scripture, date, travelers, main route followed. Key players in the book of Acts merit their own slide including Matthias who replaced Judas, Ananias and Sapphira the deceitful duo, and Stephen our first Christian martyr.Thank you to Rose Publishing for providing this download for my honest review.
