    Acts 6:1-7 teaches us about Satan’s attack of distraction and the church’s priorities for ministry.

    We tend to think of negative things when we think of addictions, but there can also be good addictions. For example, I’m addicted to oxygen. Men, if you’re addicted to your wife, that’s a good thing. Women, it’s great to be addicted to your husband. But what about ministry?
