This book is not a commentary, but a series of readings and reflections upon The Acts of the Apostles. It is not intended to be exhaustive, merely a sharing of thoughts based upon my own daily reading of the Bible over the last few years. It is published in the hope that others might find it useful in their own Bible reading programmes and draw inspiration from it. The author of the Acts of the Apostles is not named but, according to Church tradition it is generally considered that he was the "Luke" named as the companion of the apostle Paul. This is supported by the fact that parts of the book are written in the first person plural, suggesting that the author was a travelling companion of Paul whilst he was on his missionary journeys. The author claims in his opening preamble that he was the author of the Gospel of St. Luke, so this assumption appears to be founded on relatively safe ground. The account concludes with the imprisonment of Paul in Rome, in approximately 63AD, which would suggest it was written at some point between then and the end of the first century.
