Send us a textGood morning! Thank you for taking a few minutes to listen. If you are interested in the Daily Bible Devotional, you can find it at the links below:Amazon - (paperback, hardcover, and Kindle)Spiritbuilding.com - (premium quality paperback)Youtube Video Introducing the ContentFeel free to reach out with any questions: emersonk78@me.comActs 6 The early church is growing rapidly. This creates a problem where the Greek-speaking believers claim their widows are being overlooked in the daily distribution of food. The apostles respond by having the church choose seven men, full of faith and the Holy Spirit, to oversee the task and ensure fairness among all those in need. The work of these men enables the apostles to remain fully engaged in prayer and preaching. One of the selected men is named Stephen. He is full of grace and power and performs many wonders. He is the first non-apostle in the book of Acts to perform miracles. The Jewish Council falsely accuses him of blasphemy and drags him away. Stephen's face then shines like that of an angel as he prepares to defend himself. God's people care for one another in every possible way. The hungry widows receive food as an essential ministry of the church. It is crucial that this process promotes fairness throughout the fellowship and that no one is overlooked. It is God's will that every child of His is cared for within His family. The apostles appoint leaders to ensure success while they focus on spiritual work. Some will have more physical responsibilities in the kingdom, while others will be spiritual leaders and teachers. Every servant in the kingdom holds significance. We will be known for acts of kindness but also acts of courage among evil men. We must remain full of the Spirit and wisdom in every aspect of discipleship.    Holy Lord, thank You for demonstrating the practical daily love among brethren in the early days of the church. They ensured that every member in need received provisions. We pray for humility and commitment to address the physical and spiritual needs of our fellow brothers and sisters. We also ask You to bless men like the apostles, who devote their time to praying with and teaching others. In whatever roles You assign us in Your Kingdom, lead us to be “full of the Spirit and of wisdom” in all that we do, even when others oppose or malign us.  Thought Questions: -       What needs are ongoing among the Christians where you live? What role has God gifted you to take on in helping them? -       What does it mean to have a “good reputation, full of the Spirit and of wisdom”? How are you developing these traits? -       Opponents of Stephen became aggressive with their actions. Have you ever been treated that way? How do you respond in faith?

In part one of our series on deacons in the church, we explore what the Scriptures have to say about when deacons are established, why their role is important, and what they actually are called to do.

How did the early church handle it when one group of widows was being overlooked? And what can we learn about solving our own problems in the church today? Listen in to find out.

“Stephen, a man full of God’s grace and power, performed amazing miracles and signs among the people.” (Acts 6:8 NLT) In the months following Jesus’ ascension, the church grew at an amazing rate. Jesus’ followers, emboldened by His resurrection, spread the Good News near and far. And people responded. Acts 2:41 tells us that after Peter’s sermon at Pentecost, “those who believed what Peter said were baptized and added to the church that day—about 3,000 in all” (NLT). The church was also trying a radical experiment in community living. “All the believers were united in heart and mind. And they felt that what they owned was not their own, so they shared everything they had. . . . There were no needy people among them, because those who owned land or houses would sell them and bring the money to the apostles to give to those in need” (Acts 4:32, 34–35 NLT). “But as the believers rapidly multiplied, there were rumblings of discontent. The Greek-speaking believers complained about the Hebrew-speaking believers, saying that their widows were being discriminated against in the daily distribution of food” (Acts 6:1 NLT). Jesus’ apostles had neither the time nor the training to deal with such matters. Their solution was to delegate the responsibilities to “seven men who are well respected and are full of the Spirit and wisdom” (Acts 6:3 NLT). The first person on their list was “Stephen (a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit)” (verse 5 NLT). One day a group of Jewish men started a debate with Stephen, but quickly realized they were overmatched. Stephen was filled with the Holy Spirit and spoke with His wisdom. The men got their revenge by persuading others to lie about Stephen and accuse him of slandering the temple and the law of Moses. Stephen was taken to the Jewish high council to answer the charges. Instead, Stephen launched into an epic sermon. He traced Israel’s relationship with God, starting with Abraham, who left his homeland for the land God promised him. God also promised Abraham that his descendants would fill the land but would also be oppressed as slaves in a foreign land for four hundred years. Stephen recounted how God gave Abraham the covenant of circumcision and how He blessed Abraham’s descendants: Isaac, Jacob, and the twelve patriarchs of Israel. He explained how Joseph’s captivity in Egypt led to the slavery of the Jewish people for four hundred years. He also explained how Moses not only led them out of slavery but also prophesied the coming of the Messiah. Stephen ended his sermon by making the connection between their ancestors’ rejection of Moses and the prophets and the Jewish leaders’ rejection—and murder—of Jesus. Stephen spoke God’s truth boldly. He was prepared to sacrifice His life for His Savior. Acts 7:57–58 tells us that the Jewish leaders were so infuriated that they dragged Stephen out of the city and stoned him. Stephen became the first recorded Christian martyr. There’s a powerful lesson in his story for all believers. We may never be called to give our lives for Christ, but we should be prepared to sacrifice our comfort, security, pride, relationships, plans, priorities, and anything else we hold dear for His sake.

This week we reading Acts 6:1-7:2a and 44-60. This is a reading that really reflects the complexity of communal faith life in ways that are both inspiring and sobering. What is possible when religious leaders recognize how the spirit moves within members of our community, and freely empowers new leaders to serve in new ways? And speaking of new ways ... Can any community hold the particular ferocity of argument that erupts when an established form of religion is confronted by a disestablished form of that religion? Communal faith life is tricky, isn't it.
