    Growing Pains

    Reader: John Hargrave

    Preacher: Jonathan Smith

    The faithful ministry of Word and Spirit results in rapid growth for the early church. This is a beautiful display of God’s grace, but it also makes life more complicated and potentially divisive. In response to these growing pains, the Apostles appoint faithful servants to aid in the ministry of pastoral care. Churches today must do the same.

    Stephen On Trial

    Reader: Marios Kyriakou

    Preachert: Jonathan Smith

    You might have heard people say, “As soon as I became a Christian, life got much harder.” This is often true, and never more so than for Stephen. He became a Christian at Pentecost, was put in charge of the mercy ministry (in last week’s passage), put up on trial for blasphemy, and (in next week’s passage) will be put to death for following Jesus. This Sunday’s passage focusses on the charges levelled at him and his brilliant defence of the truth of the gospel.
