DAY 1:   Read Acts 6:5, Galatians 5:22–25

[5] Everyone liked this idea, and they chose the following: Stephen (a man full of faith and the Holy Spirit), Philip, Procorus, Nicanor, Timon, Parmenas, and Nicolas of Antioch (an earlier convert to the Jewish faith). 

Acts 6:5 NLT 

[22] But the Holy Spirit produces this kind of fruit in our lives: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, [23] gentleness, and self-control. There is no law against these things! [24] Those who belong to Christ Jesus have nailed the passions and desires of their sinful nature to his cross and crucified them there. [25] Since we are living by the Spirit, let us follow the Spirit’s leading in every part of our lives. 

Galatians 5:22–25 NLT

• Stephen is described as “full of faith and of the Holy Spirit” (Acts 6:5). 

• What do you think it means to be “full of faith”? 

• How might that look practically in your life?
