Episode 138: Radical Acts – “The Choosing of the Seven.”

In today’s episode we return to our series “Radical Acts” the story of the multiethnic church. We will begin with a little-known story referred to as “the choosing of the seven.” This is a story about how the early church dealt with ethnic divisions, economic injustice, and the use of systemic power to address these concerns. So buckle your theological seatbelts! We are going on a ride!

Let’s go now and listen to this conversation.
