ST. STEPHEN - The First MartyrBefore cathedrals rose... before empires bowed... before Christianity had power - it had Stephen. In a time when faith meant danger and truth could cost your life, one young believer stood before a raging crowd and refused to back down. Chosen not as an apostle, not as a bishop, but as a humble servant of the poor, Stephen became something far greater: the first witness to Christ through blood. This gripping portrait brings to life the courage, compassion, and unshakable conviction of the man whose death changed history. From serving widows in the early Church to preaching with Spirit-filled boldness, from false accusations to a trial that echoed eternity, Stephen's story is not merely tragic - it is triumphant. As stones fell, heaven opened. As hatred roared, forgiveness rose. And as one man died, the Church stepped into its destiny. But Stephen's legacy did not end in martyrdom. His final prayer would echo in the life of a young persecutor named Saul... a man the world would one day know as Paul the Apostle. Raw, inspiring, and deeply human, ST. STEPHEN reveals: The birth of Christian courage under persecution The cost of truth in a hostile world The power of forgiveness in the face of violence How one faithful life can shape generations This is not just the story of the first martyr. It is the story of faith that cannot be silenced... hope that outlives hatred... and a vision of glory that makes even death lose its sting. Stephen shows us what it means to follow Christ - all the way.
