Working Wisely | Acts 6:1-7 | Pastor Josh Wootton
<p>In Acts 6:1–7, the early church faced a problem that every healthy church must learn to navigate: how do we faithfully care for people while keeping the mission of proclaiming the gospel at the center?</p><p><br></p><p>As the church grew, internal conflict, physical needs, and organizational challenges threatened to distract the apostles from prayer and the ministry of the Word. God provided a wise solution through the appointment of faithful servants who could care for the needs of the church while the apostles remained devoted to preaching and teaching.</p><p><br></p><p>In this sermon, “Working Wisely,” we’ll see three kinds of problems the church must always be prepared to address, the God-given structure that helps solve them, and the result of God’s people working together according to His design: a church that remains faithfully on mission.</p>
