Acts 6 · Grade 3

Full of Faith

Name Date

Read the Story

As the number of disciples grew, the Greek-speaking believers said their widows were being overlooked in the daily serving of food.

The twelve called the disciples together. They said they should not leave the word of God to serve tables. They asked the believers to choose seven men of good report, full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom.

The whole group was pleased. They chose Stephen, a man full of faith, and six others. The apostles prayed and laid their hands on them. The word of God increased, and many priests believed.

Stephen did great wonders and signs. Some men argued with him, but they could not stand against his wisdom. So they got men to tell lies about him and brought him to the council. All who sat there saw his face like the face of an angel.

Memory Verse

“Therefore, select from among you, brothers, seven men of good report, full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may appoint over this business.”

Serving Tables, Serving the Word

Name Date

Read and Think

As the church grew, a complaint arose. The Greek-speaking believers said their widows were overlooked in the daily serving of food.

The twelve gathered the disciples. They said it was not right for them to leave the word of God to serve tables. They asked the believers to choose seven men of good report, full of the Spirit and wisdom. The apostles would keep on in prayer and the ministry of the word.

The whole group chose Stephen, full of faith and the Holy Spirit, along with Philip and five others. The apostles prayed and laid hands on them. "The word of God increased," and a great company of priests obeyed the faith.

Stephen, full of faith and power, did great wonders. Men from a synagogue argued with him but could not withstand his wisdom. They got men to say they had heard him speak against Moses and God. They stirred up the people and brought him to the council with false witnesses. Everyone there saw his face like the face of an angel.

Acts 6 · Grade 5

Chosen to Serve

Name Date

Read and Think

Growth brought a problem. The Hellenists, Greek-speaking believers, complained that their widows were neglected in the daily serving, compared with those of the Hebrews.

The twelve did not ignore it. They called the multitude together and said it was not fit for them to leave the word of God to serve tables. Instead the believers should select seven men of good report, full of the Holy Spirit and of wisdom, to appoint over this business, while the apostles continued steadfastly in prayer and the ministry of the word (Acts 6:4).

The plan pleased everyone. Their choices included Stephen, full of faith and the Holy Spirit, and Philip, along with Nicolaus, a proselyte of Antioch. The apostles prayed and laid their hands on them. Luke's summary follows: the word of God increased, disciples multiplied in Jerusalem, and a great company of priests were obedient to the faith (Acts 6:7).

Stephen, full of faith and power, performed great wonders and signs among the people. Men from the Synagogue of the Freedmen and others disputed with him, but they were not able to withstand the wisdom and the Spirit by which he spoke. So they secretly induced men to accuse him of blasphemy, stirred up the people, elders, and scribes, and set up false witnesses before the council. They claimed he spoke against the temple and the law. Yet all who sat in the council, fastening their eyes on him, saw his face like it was the face of an angel.
