Acts Chapter 6 - When Serving Others Protects Unity

Send us Fan MailToday we are studying Acts Chapter 6. In this chapter, the early church begins to grow rapidly, and with growth comes new challenges. A conflict arises over the distribution to widows, and the apostles respond by appointing seven men to serve and ensure fairness. This allows the apostles to remain focused on prayer and the ministry of the Word. We are also introduced to Stephen, a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit, who boldly stands for truth. Acts 6:7 says, “So the preaching about God flourished, the number of the disciples in Jerusalem multiplied greatly, and a large group of priests became obedient to the faith.” This chapter reminds us that God uses structure, service, and faithful people to grow His church. Support the showWe’re so grateful you chose to spend this time with us in God’s Word today.
