Like most 12-year-olds, Chris has a lot of questions. When his grandfather visits, Chris turns to him for answers.

This book presents an overview of the book of Acts, featuring events and characters such as Pentecost, Peter, Stephen, the conversion of Saul, and Paul's missionary journeys. The third of a trilogy, it offers a clear understanding of growth of the early church, highlighting some of the challenges of carrying out the Great Commission all under the guidance of God's grace through the power of the Holy Spirit.

Beautiful illustrations by Francisco Ordaz and an emphasis on scriptural truth combine to make this book a classic of Christian literature.

In the follow-up to The Very First Christmas and The Very First Easter, 12-year-old Christopher entreats his grandfather to tell him about the first Christians. Using the book of Acts as a foundation, Christopher's grandfather helps him visualize the significance of that historical time.

Christopher learns about Peter, Paul, and Stephen. He discovers the important contributions each made to the Church. And he finds that these real stories are better than anything a storyteller could imagine.

The award-winning team of Paul L. Maier and Francisco Ordaz work together again to bring children a vivid picture of the first days of Christianity. The Very First Christians makes a wonderful gift for children, families, and friends.
