- Description:
- Dr. Jim Shaddix was senior Professor of Preaching at SEBTS. Shaddix begins with asking the congregation to turn to Acts 6, focusing on ministry (0:00-6:22). The passage’s theme is church growth, but Shaddix delves deeper and discusses how the New Testament church overcame challenges to growth (6:23-11:36). The New Testament church leaders embraced their roles as stewards of God’s Word (11:37-12:31). Shaddix presents three answers to overcoming challenges of church growth (12:32-13:17). First, as a living organism, the church must grow by the Gospel; the church must be rooted by the Gospel (13:18-19:29). Second, as faithful stewards, we must protect the witness of the Gospel (19:30-23:52). Shaddix reveals that the New Testament church leaders protected two primary agents for Gospel advancing: prayer and preaching (23:53-24:19). Just as the New Testament leaders, we need to understand that prayer is how we unleash the power of the Holy Spirit in our lives (24:20-29:22). Regarding preaching, the New Testament church leaders referred to it as “distributing” the Gospel as they physically went out into secular places and spoke the Word (29:23-35:05). They grounded themselves by prayer while they distributed the Gospel to others (35:06-36:09). Third, we must share the work of the Gospel (36:10-39:07). Shaddix speaks about why the New Testament church leaders shared the Gospel: to minister to not just the poor, but also to all people so that they can spread the Word (39:08-46:00). Everyone who are saved are called to share the Gospel (46:01-46:22). Shaddix closes with three challenges for the congregation: 1) make time for prayer, 2) assign tasks for people in your church, and 3) lead your church to care for the disenfranchised (46:23-49:01). He gives a word of prayer (49:02-49:53).
