Patristic Nectar Publications is pleased to present a new 8 lecture series entitled: The Original Church: Lectures on the Acts of the Apostles by Father Josiah Trenham. The Acts was written by the Holy Apostle and Evangelist Luke, as the 2nd part of his great literary masterpiece setting forth the Life of Jesus Christ in his Gospel, and then in the Acts showing forth the new Christian life made possible by the Lord’s great and saving deeds and the descent of the Holy Spirit. Here in these sacred pages we discover what St. Paul calls “new creation in Christ.”

Here we discover what is the birth-right of Christians – that is the continuous miracle of church life. Lecture titles are as follows: 

Lecture #1 The Meaning of the Acts 

Lecture #2 Pentecost 

Lecture #3 Spiritual Life 

Lecture #4 Fellowship 

Lecture #5 Martyrdom 

Lecture #6 Conversion 

Lecture #7 Defending the Faith: The Jerusalem Council 

Lecture #8 The Missionary Journeys of St. Paul
