The Acts 2020 Project:
Examining Evidence of the Way, the Truth, and the Life
This platform is more than a website; it is an investigative portal—a journey into the heart of 1st-century Christianity. The Acts 2020 Project allows you to examine the birth and expansion of the early Church through decades of exhaustive research from Dr. John MacArthur combined with modern technology for “deep dive” analysis.
While traditional studies often look only at the "What," we enable you to examine the "How" and the "Why." By engaging with our Interactive Research Hub (“Ask John”), you will discover the supernatural evidence of the Risen Christ and the power of the Holy Spirit through seven distinct Biblical Lenses.
Application:
The Apostolic Blueprint for Today’s Post-Christian Era
The Book of Acts is not just a historical record, but a tactical manual for today. The world of the Apostles was a pluralistic, skeptical environment where the Gospel was viewed as a disruptive "illegal superstition." As our culture moves away from its Christian memory toward a new secular paganism, the Acts 2020 Project provides the primary data for modern engagement. We examine in detail the specific tactics Peter, John, Paul and others used to confront a culture that mocked their message:
Logic over Naturalism: Learn how the Apostles dismantled naturalistic excuses for the supernatural using reason and cultural context (e.g Acts 2:15).
Historical Specificity: Discover why the exclusive identity of the "Historical Christ" is more disruptive to modern skeptics than generic spirituality (e.g Acts 3:6).
Objective Landmarks: See how the Apostles used verifiable history to prove that faith is a response to fact, not a subjective feeling (e.g Acts 2:29).
Engage
Join us as we examine the growth of "the Way" in a manner that is deeply respectful of tradition while powered by modern clarity. To learn how you can “Ask John” to go beyond simply reading the Book of Acts—fully engaging with Dr. MacArthur’s in-depth analysis and applying these ancient strategies to our modern world—visit The Practice Lab and the Strategic Application section at the bottom of Acts 2:14–21.
