Acts 6

Good Morning “Care Givers”  Today we are in Acts 6.

The Disciples were intent on making sure everyone is being taken care of… but they realized some widows were being overlooked!  So what do you do?  Appoint some men to make sure this never happens again.  

Among those appointed was Stephen!  “Now Stephen, a man full of God’s grace and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people.”
‭‭Acts‬ ‭6‬:‭8‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Because Stephen literally shined the light of Jesus he was an easy choice!  “All who were sitting in the Sanhedrin looked intently at Stephen, and they saw that his face was like the face of an angel.” Acts‬ ‭6‬:‭15‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Who’s responsible to care for those in need?  Widows, orphans?  It was never the government. It was the responsibility of the church body to take care of those that needed taken care of.  First the family & then the Church; and, not just our own (Timothy 5:3-8; Gal 6:9-10).

Dig in and check out this chapter to see what happens to Stephen!  

Love you all!  Dig in and live it out!
