Message: “God Uses Broken People” from Collin Seitz

Stephen is the first person recorded to have given their life for the sake of the Gospel. After being arrested and tried due to his faith, he gives a brilliant testimony that traces God's work in the Old Testament to Jesus. Luke (the author of Acts) tells us that Stephen was filled with the Holy Spirit, wisdom, faith, grace, and power. Much of what Luke records about Stephen's words and actions reflects those of Jesus. Just as the Holy Spirit empowered Stephen, he empowers us to be gracious yet firm with the gospel and to forgive our enemies.
