Rick Renner - A Very Diverse Group

In the church at Antioch, the fivefold ministry gifts were flourishing — especially the gifts of the prophet and the teacher. A close look at Scripture reveals that Barnabas, Simeon, and Lucius were prophets; Manaen and Paul were teachers. The gathering together of this culturally diverse group could only have been done by the hand of God. By Barnabas bringing Paul to Antioch, he was able to rub elbows with people he would have never connected with in Jerusalem. Tune in to tonight’s Home Group for more on this very interesting subject!
