What does faithfulness look like when it costs everything?
Stephen wasn't just the first Christian martyr โ he was a Hellenist Jew chosen specifically to ensure equity for the overlooked. And when he ended up on trial for his life, he didn't plead for it. He walked his accusers through the whole sweep of Scripture, exposed a long pattern of rejection before rescue, and offered them the gospel one final time.
In Acts 6โ7, Luke draws a careful parallel between Stephen's death and Jesus' own crucifixion โ falsely accused, tried, executed outside the city, forgiving his killers with his last breath. A cruciform life isn't defeated by suffering. It plants seed that bears fruit across generations.
Watch for the young man named Saul standing at the edge of the crowd. ๐ฅ
