Anthem Podcast: My Witnesses // Acts 6:8-15

This week we continued to look at the account of Stephen who began ministry as one of the seven men who were appointed to oversee the distribution of food to widows. This week’s text shows us that the Lord had greater plans for Stephen, such as doing great signs and wonders for the people and proclaiming the Gospel powerfully and with wisdom. What began as a simple and practical ministry expanded into all sorts of God-glorifying service. The passage is quick to point out that this was not due to Stephen’s power but through the Spirit. When we step up and serve the Lord we never know where He is going to take us. However, we can be sure that it will be for our good and for His glory!
