All chapters of the Book of Acts tell a tremendous story of the coming of the Holy Spirit and the birth of the church. Acts chapter six is one of the most important development chapters the unfolding of the story. The church is booming in growth and this means needs are also multiplying with the advancement of the church. This setting also producing the first church problems...the neglect of the widows in the daily distribution of food. How would these mounting problems be solved?
They elected those full of the Holy Spirit and wisdom. This was also the beginning of matching gifts with needs. What a wonderful chapter to reflect on as churches transition in growth or even in decline. There is a way to meet the needs of God's people. We are well served to use the Biblical model of building a team.
