Acts 5-6 | Kristyn DeNooyer and Trey Ferguson

Today I’m joined by Kristyn DeNooyer and Trey Ferguson to talk through Acts 5 and 6. In this episode, we cover the curious case of Ananias and Sapphira, what happens when the status quo gets threatened by the Holy Spirit’s work, and how the early church handled a conflict about those who felt uncared for. 

Kristyn DeNooyer writes at the intersections of singleness, spiritual formation, and chronic pain. She holds degrees in English & Nonprofit Communications and Bible & Theology and owns a copywriting firm working with writers, small businesses, and nonprofits. Kristyn loves small-city living, ecumenicism, and contemplative rhythms. When not putting pen to paper she can be found hosting dinner parties, frequenting local businesses, and pursuing her Masters of Divinity at Gordon Conwell Theological Seminary.
