Episode 50: Acts 6 - Living Sacrifices
July 25, 2022 - Host: Dr. Gregory Hall
In act 6, we read about a problem in the early days of the church. Some widows in the church were being overlooked by other church members. And it turns out it was an ethnic issue. The locals weren’t getting along with those from out of town. In this episode we’ll look a little deeper into the problem and try to connect their solution back to a story in the book of numbers.
