In Acts 6:8–7:60, Stephen stands before the council as a faithful witness to Jesus Christ. Instead of defending himself, he retells the story of Israel to show that God has always been at work beyond temples, traditions, and human control—and that His people have repeatedly resisted Him. When Stephen sees the risen Son of Man standing at the right hand of God, he entrusts himself to a reigning King even as stones fall around him. This sermon calls us to examine where we may be resisting the Spirit and to stand with courage and hope before the King who stands for His people.Our mission is to declare the gospel of Jesus Christ with our words and display the gospel of Jesus Christ with our lives to our neighbors and to the nations.
