Why another commentary on the book of Acts when there are so many out there already? A verse-by-verse compilation of commentaries and personal impressions of St. Luke’s writings in the book of Acts in the Holy Bible, The Book of Acts from a Layperson’s Perspective (BALP) is written for laypeople from a layperson’s point of view; it is not a scholarly dissertation requiring a PhD in order to comprehend it. The BALP offers a simplicity in its presentation without being simple, providing curious seekers the opportunity to appreciate Acts as an early-Christian history book as they discover the episodes and events surrounding Paul, Peter, and other believers, whether in a small-group Bible study or individually.
