Petty complaints can split a church—but Acts 6 shows us how God turns distraction into mission. As grumbling rises in the early church, the apostles wisely delegate, and Stephen steps forward as a servant full of grace and power. His life and death point us to the true High Priest, Jesus—the one who intercedes for us, cares for us, and gives us boldness to live for Him.

In this message, James unpacks the problem of grumbling, the wisdom of delegation, and the example of Stephen, reminding us that when our eyes are fixed on Christ, we too can serve with compassion, speak with courage, and stay focused on our mission.
