Acts: Saved to be Sent - Acts 6.1-7

Jobey McGinty

From the church's beginnings until now, we see clearly that thriving, gospel community doesn't just happen, nor does it happen without personal sacrifice.  The early church leaders quickly realized that they had gaps, and that they would not be able to do it all...they needed others to press in, to serve, and to ensure all of the needs of the community were met.  While this service can feel overwhelming at times, we remember the words of our Lord, Jesus (It is more blessed to give than to receive), we draw upon the strength of His Spirit, and we press in.
