Acts 6 is an amazing introduction to Stephen. This was an ordinary man, who was filled with the Holy Spirit, that God used to share the name of Jesus. Stephens purpose was to relieve the apostles of servitude, because they were becoming busier every day. Yet in Stephens service he still found time to evangelize, and in doing so this angered certain religious leaders. The key takeaway from todays message is that you can be used by God anywhere you are at any moment, even if it seems in the most unlikely of places. The saying is true, that we're all part of the same body of Christ and that faith and works must go hand and hand.
