We know little of Luke, with information found in the "we" passages of Acts, in three places where Paul mentions him by name, and where he identifies himself as the author of Luke and Acts. Luke interviewed and conversed with the people who had known Jesus. He likely studied Mark's gospel, with nearly half of Mark's verses appearing in his own gospel. He meticulously put the facts together as he gathered his information. Paul was Luke's mentor, and early Christian writers linked this gospel closely not only with Luke, but with Paul. Walk through the Gospel of Luke with John Phillips as your guide!
