How to Die Like Stephen
Dr. Uriesou Brito preaches on Acts 7 and the martyrdom of Stephen, arguing that the church is a "warring bride" whose warfare is spiritual rather than physical, fought through faithfully retelling the gospel story in ordinary life circumstances. He emphasizes that like Stephen, Christians must witness to the truth of redemptive history even when opposed, understanding that Jesus stands as their divine witness and will receive them at the end of their race if they remain faithful to telling God's story.
