Today we’re launching a new teaching series on The Hope Podcast called The Upside Down Series – A study of Acts. Jesus not only turned the world upside down with his life and message but invited His followers to continue in His footsteps and spread the good news of the gospel in word and deed. In this chapter-by-chapter study of the book of Acts, I invite you to learn what it means to be a disciple in today’s culture and impact the world with the gospel by the power of God’s Spirit. On today’s episode we open Acts 1 and look at five truths to consider because Jesus is alive.    ABOUT: Lina AbuJamra founded Living with Power Ministries and is a popular Bible teacher, podcaster, and conference speaker.
