Spreading the Word

Acts 6:7 tells us that when the Word of God spread the number of disciples increased rapidly. It is because we believe in the amazing power of God’s Word that we seek to spread it by very possible means. Each of us must do this with the gifts and abilities that God has given us as we are enabled by the Holy Spirit. In David’s case this largely involves:

• preaching in churches
• teaching intensive courses in Bible Colleges
• writing
