The Apostles
Spread the Gospel Board Game
The Apostles - Spread the Gospel Board Game - is designed to deepen our knowledge of what the original Apostles went through so long ago, and to prepare us to continue their mission: "There is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among mortals by which we must be saved.” (Acts 4:12 NRSV)
This ropes and ladder style board game reflects how the Apostles might have felt and how we might feel as we spread the Gospel today. Sometimes it seems as if we are moving ahead, while at other times as if we are set back.
Familiar Biblical stories come alive as you encounter ancient sites from the life of the Apostles.
