    Spiritual Discernments

    Pastor Joe
    February 24, 2008

    Ministry is filled with challenges and requires the leadership of people who are sensitive to the Spirit. Maintaining the ministry of the word and prayer can never be compromised.

    Message Notes

    Acts 6:1-15

    5 insights we can learn from the 1st century church:

    1.       Ministry can be messy! Acts 6:1

    2.       Focus on solutions not placing blame. Acts 6:2-4

    3.       Ministry must always prioritize the Word and prayer but not to the exclusion of caring for the poor and dealing with injustice. Acts 6:4

     The people of God pursuing together
    The presence of God, being transformed by
    The power of God, to accomplish
    The purposes of God

    4.    Learn to be flexible and adaptable to new situations so that needs continue to be met and the Word spread.  Acts 6:3

    5.       Fruitfulness and faithfulness does not immunize us from hardships.  Acts 6:8-10
