Deadly Lie, Angelic Jailbreak, and a Church Still Growing | Acts 5–6

A lie ends in judgment. Prison doors open in the night. The apostles are beaten, threatened, and sent right back out to preach.In this episode, Adam and Kevin slow down and explore Acts chapters 5 and 6. They discuss Ananias and Sapphira, the purpose of signs and wonders, the apostles’ angelic jailbreak, Gamaliel’s surprising advice, and Peter’s bold statement: “We must obey God rather than men.”The church was also facing growing pains from within. When the Hellenistic widows were being overlooked, the apostles responded with wisdom by choosing seven faithful, Spirit-filled men to serve.That decision introduces Stephen, whose courage, wisdom, and powerful witness will soon take center stage.Join us as we study the early church, its struggles, its growth, and the unstoppable spread of the gospel.
