Message given by Jack Spender in 2007
Acts 11:19-30
In this sermon, Jack Spender teaches on the topic of caring for new believers. It is part of our shepherding responsibilities as elders. It is a responsibility of the church. Spiritual ‘babes’ are the future of God’s work in the church.
Having a Spiritual Nursery in the Assembly
- Know who the ‘babes’ are
- A suitable place to take care of them
- We want to be sure there are caregivers
- We want to be sure there is adequate nurture and admonition
- We want to be sure there is a healthy atmosphere in which they can grow
