Call For Papers: The Book of Acts section invites submissions for an open session covering any aspect of research related to the Acts of the Apostles, including (e.g.) textual, theological, narratival, historical, reception-historical, exegetical, social-scientific, and ideological approaches. The section also plans to host two additional sessions at the 2016 annual meeting.

The other session, sponsored jointly with the Gospel of Luke section, will focus on characterization in Luke-Acts and will also include invited papers.
