Acts Of The Apostles (11 Of 39)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Mar 14, 2022

Chapters 6 and 7, told us how God used the great deacon, Stephen, and how he gave his life for the gospel.

Now we are going to study about how that affected the church. When some people who belong to church die, it does not have much of an impact on God's work, because they did not love the Lord, or His church. But when a man like Stephen dies, it leaves a vacuum for some time. Look at verse ...read more

A Profitable Endeavor

Contributed by Christopher Benfield on Apr 23, 2017

Many today seek the latest method for spiritual renewal among the church, and church growth. There are countless new conferences, books, and blog articles annually. While I appreciate the hunger for growth, I fear we have over-complicated the matter.

A Profitable Endeavor Acts 8: 5-8 Our text today deals with a time of great excitement for the early church, and yet there was great uncertainty as well.
