Message Summary
About this message
Marv explains the dispute over neglected widows in Acts 6 as a real tension between Greek-speaking and Aramaic-speaking Jews within the growing Jerusalem assembly. The choosing of the seven shows practical wisdom: material needs were handled by qualified servants so the apostles could continue in prayer and the ministry of the Word.
