Stephen’s Ordinary But Legacy Life | His Word, His Plan, His People

This sermon takes us through Acts 6 and 7, where Stephen’s story reveals what happens when faith meets obedience. From speaking truth to enduring persecution, Stephen shows us what it means to live a life led by the Spirit and grounded in grace. Whether you're facing pressure, questions about your faith, or simply wondering if your life matters, this message is for you.

Key Insights:

  1. The Holy Spirit empowers ordinary people to live lives that point to Jesus.
  2. Spiritual boldness often leads to opposition—but obedience matters more than comfort.
  3. Faith that endures suffering reflects God’s glory more than success ever could.
  4. Legacy is built not by titles but by consistent surrender to the Spirit.
  5. Even when we don’t see immediate impact, God is using our obedience to shape eternity.

    6. Key Scriptures: Acts 6 & Acts 7
