The First Deacons: Which Jobs in the Church Are Most Important? (Acts 6:1-15) - Session 12

from Reasoning Through the Bible · host What Does the Bible Say?

The apostles ask for help in serving so that they can spend time in prayer and telling others about the word of God. These are the first deacons, or servants, in the early church. In this session we learn why they chose these servants and why a division of work is often needed in the church.  We also learn that one of those chosen, Stephen, does sign miracles, disputes with the Jews, and is then falsely accused of blasphemy. Are some jobs in the church are more important than others? Should Christians argue with non-believers in public? What are the purposes of miraculous signs and wonders? How should we respond if we are falsely accused?Support the showThank you for listening!!  Please give us a five-star rating to help your podcast provider's algorithm spread RTTB among their listeners. You can find free study and leader resources at the following link - Resource Page - Reasoning Through the BiblePlease prayerfully consider supporting RTTB to help us to continue providing content and free resources.
