PreacHer: Amy McLaughlin-Sheasby
Summary: When Stephen is put on trial before the council in Acts 6-7, he does not seek to defend himself. Rather, he retells Israel’s history in order to expose their pattern of rejecting prophets and leaders. In a moment of radical truth-telling, Stephen beseeches the crowd to break the cycle of their ancestors, and to consecrate their hearts to God. In this sermon, I invite Stephen to challenge us, as we consider why we have rejected the prophets and truth-tellers of our time, and how we might repent.
