Exploring Acts Chapter 6, we learn about the emergence of deacons in the early church, a response to the growing community's needs. Deacons were established to manage the physical needs, allowing apostles to focus on teaching and prayer. Their qualifications included being respected, Spirit-filled, and wise. The selection process was communal, and their service led to significant church growth and the spread of the gospel.
