The account of the accusation, defense, and martyrdom of Stephen is long enough for us to consider in three weeks. Today, we introduce Stephen as a man filled with the Holy Spirit. Through Stephen's life and death, we see a God who carries out his redemptive plan through people, and equips them for their calling. We are encouraged to live our lives by the power of the Holy Spirt who has been give to us by God.

Grace Community Church exists to build spiritually healthy people for ministry in the world. One of the ways that we pursue this mission is by gathering each Sunday for corporate worship, prayer, and biblical teaching. The corporate nature of this gathering is both edifying to the believer and a witness of God’s grace to the world. Sermon speaker is Scott Patty unless otherwise noted.
