This sermon from Acts 6:1-7 addresses a controversy that arose in the early church between Hellenist Jews and Hebrew Jews regarding the distribution of food to widows. The Hellenist widows were being neglected in the daily distribution, causing murmuring in the church. The apostles wisely responded by having the church select seven qualified men to serve as the first deacons, allowing the apostles to focus on prayer and preaching. This resolution led to continued church growth and even many priests coming to faith. The sermon emphasizes wise leadership principles, including investigating complaints, resolving issues quickly, delegating ministry responsibilities, and maintaining good reputations.
