Bible: Acts 6:3-5

6:3 But carefully select from among you, brothers, 1  seven 2  men who are well-attested, 3  full of the Spirit and of wisdom, whom we may put in charge 4  of this necessary task. 5  6:4 But we will devote ourselves to prayer and to the ministry of the word.” 6:5 The 6  proposal pleased the entire group, so 7  they chose Stephen, a man full of faith and of the Holy Spirit, with 8  Philip, 9  Prochorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas, a Gentile convert to Judaism 10  from Antioch. 11
