October 4, 2020 Speaker: Pastor Scott Slaughter Series: ACTS, Continuing the Work of Jesus

Topic: Worship, Evangelism, Church Growth, Outreach Scripture: Acts 6:8–15

A June 2006 broadcast of the German TV’s equivalent of 60 Minutes called Panorama stated regarding Voice of the Martyrs Ministry, “cause much alarm and hatred in Iraq…” and that “Radical Christians are trying to convert the whole world.” 

Here in Acts 6:8-8:2 we are told the story of a man, the first martyr of the church, who was trying to reach the whole world for Christ.
