The Book of Acts was written by Luke to a man named Theophilus sometime between 60-64 AD. Some theologians consider it the most important book in the bible because it gives key information about the early church.
The book begins in Jerusalem with the disciples huddled in a room on the Day of Pentecost. The Holy Spirit came upon them and empowered them with great authority in what we celebrate as Pentecost or the birthday of the Church. The rest of the book describes the ripple effects of that event and describes how Christianity began in Jerusalem and swept across the Roman empire.
