Wait...That's In Acts? Ep 17: Deacons Appointed
Sharon Hobbs, Melissa Phipps
Sharon and Melissa discuss Acts 6 as a turning point where the rapidly growing early church faces organizational strain when Hellenist widows are neglected in the daily distribution. The church’s new “family of God” model required practical systems. The Twelve respond by prioritizing prayer and ministry of the Word while delegating food distribution to seven reputable, Spirit-filled men, emphasizing leadership, delegation, and valuing different gifts.
