Luke begins his book – Luke 1:1-4

Luke wrote this note at the start of his book.

Dear Friend,
A lot of people have been trying to write
about the things that have been happening here.
They wrote down what people had seen Jesus do.
They wrote down what Jesus had said.
They told the message of Jesus.
I have carefully studied these things.
I thought I should write them down for you.
I want you to know the full truth about what you have been told
about Jesus.
