Podcasts about Acts 6

Send us a textWe continue our verse-by-verse, chapter-by-chapter study of the Book of Acts.  In this episode, we explore Acts chapter 6, where the early church faces growing pains and responds with wisdom. As the number of disciples increases, so do challenges, including complaints of unfair treatment between the Greek-speaking widows and the Hebrew-speaking widows in the daily distribution of food.  We'll unpack how Jesus' apostles delegate authority by appointing seven Spirit-filled men to serve, including Stephen, whose bold faith and powerful witness begin to stir opposition. Join us as we discuss leadership, unity, and the beginning of Stephen's remarkable journey.Listen to hear the complete story and be blessed by the Word of God!You can listen to past and future episodes of this podcast and The God Revelation Podcast and the Holy Spirit Podcast on our website   https://renewyourmindministries.org/, or on any podcast platform such as Amazon Alexa, Audible, Apple/Itunes Podcasts, Spotify, iheart, Youtube Podcasts, & etc. If you need prayer, you can email us at renewyourmindm@gmail.com.

Acts 7 tells the account of Stephen, the first Christian martyr of the early church. In Acts, Stephen preaches that Jesus is the main thing. This Sunday, we looked at the 4 realities that are true about us when we live in light of that truth.

Today's episode is going to be incredibly short and tomorrow's episode is going to be rather long. Chapter 6 is really just a preface leading into chapter 7, in which Stephen speaks to the Sanhedrin concerning the history of Israel and their resistance against God. Instead of breaking up that speech in smaller pieces, I thought it would be best to keep that sermon in one piece. Having said all that, today's reading includes the introduction of deacons in the life of the church, whose role is to serve the church and to lead in doing so. Because of their faithful service, those who were called to teach are free to fulfill their role. Stephen is among those mentioned as being chosen as a deacon.  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Biblefacebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

Stephen, the first martyry of the early church, provides for us a powerful example of what it means to sacrifice for the Lord. Because he was a man of faith and full of the Holy Spirit, he displayed for us how to live a life of grace and how to die with grace as followers of Jesus Christ our Lord. By Dave Bartlett

Acts 6 | God Will Not Be Stopped - Pastor James O by South Bay Community Church

The Book of Acts teaches Christians how to be UNSTOPPABLE with the gospel. In this message, you will learn what the the consequences of resisting God are as seen in Acts 6:8-7:53.

As we've been journeying through the book of Acts and reading all about the incredible feats of the early church, we've found ourselves marveling at the disciples' superhuman faith and strength and resolve.Except we know that they were anything BUT superhuman.Rather, they were ordinary people who God used for extraordinary purposes. So the real question is, why THEM?And the answer, in part, is that they were available. Availability was their superpower. And part of what we're going to see this week is that availability is often the precursor to experiencing a move of God. But what we must know, is that the enemy is always looking to stop the move of God, and often he does that by placing obstacles in the way of our availability.Join us for service online or in person every Sunday at 8am, 9:30am, 11am, & 12:30pm (PST).If you want to share how God is moving in your life through this ministry, please let us know at info@captivatesd.com!Decided To Follow Jesus?

Message from Mike Seaver on February 16, 2025

The early church serves as an example to us of how God has gifted each one of us for the work of the ministry. We see this wonderfully displayed here in Acts chapter six, as each one used their gifts to meet the needs of those were being neglected. You have been given spiritual gifts to build up the Body of Christ, use them and see how God will be glorified and His people  edified.  By Dave Bartlett

This Spring, we're exploring the explosion of the early church throughout the first half of Acts - from Christ's ascension to the first Christians in the ends of the Earth. Our journey centers around how the Holy Spirit's arrival created communities of radical hospitality toward others, faithfulness to the way of Jesus, and sacrificial love in the face of suffering. This patient power is both the history, and the future, of the Church in the world, and everyone's invited into it!
