When Jesus Stands (Acts 7)

When Jesus Stands
Matthew Thrower

In Acts 7, Stephen’s Spirit-filled sermon ends not in revival, but in rejection, revealing the sobering pattern of resisting the Holy Spirit. Yet in the middle of rage and persecution, Stephen sees a stunning vision: Jesus standing at the right hand of God as Advocate, Host, and Judge.

Pastor Matthew walks through what it means when heaven stands while earth rages, and how Christ meets His people in both suffering and faithfulness. Even Stephen’s death becomes seed, as God uses persecution to scatter the church and advance the gospel. Discover how the same Jesus who stood for Stephen still stands today—for the suffering, the faithful, and even those far from Him.
