About this book

Luke wrote this book. He was a doctor. This is the 2nd book he wrote. His 1st book is about the things that Jesus did when he was here on the earth. We have translated some of that book, see

Luke was a friend of Paul, one of Jesus’s special workers, and he went with Paul to a lot of countries and helped him as he told people the good news about Jesus.

Some of the things that Luke wrote about in this book, are things he saw happen, and the rest are things that Paul and Jesus’s other followers told him about.

Luke wrote this book about 2,000 years ago, about 30 years after Jesus went back to heaven. It is now part of the Holy Bible, and it is important for us today. It tells us about how the first Christians lived for Jesus, and how they started the first churches in the towns where they lived. And it tells us how God’s Holy Spirit worked in them, and how they told everyone about Jesus, so that a lot more people believed in him. We can learn a lot today from this book that Luke wrote a long time ago.
