Acts

One of the attractions of the book of Acts is that it gives a picture of the church in action. It tells the story of early church leaders actually doing the work of ministry. It is an exciting story, a story that, if read carefully, allows us no chance of thinking that being a Christian is an armchair exercise. It is a book well named: Acts. One of the attractions of this particular commentary on Acts is that it gives us repeated pictures of the church in action around the world by one who is intimately involved in the work of the church in the beautiful country of Sri Lanka. Ajith Fernando is a scholar of the Word. But he is also a frontline doer of the Word. As president of Youth for Christ in Sri Lanka, he has lived his life in a way that mirrors many of the stories told of the early church in Acts. As Zondervan editor Jack Kuhatschek noted after reading Fernando's work on Acts, "It gives the practical perspective of one who has lived through many of the items discussed in Acts." - General Editor's Preface.
