025. The Cost of Real Church, Acts 6:8-8:1

What does it truly cost to follow Jesus? In this powerful message, Justin Smith walks through the story of Stephen — the first martyr of the Church — and challenges us to consider the real price of gospel-centered living. When faith gets uncomfortable, do we still speak with grace and truth? Are we willing to lay down reputation, comfort, or even safety to be faithful? This isn’t a story about loss — it’s about boldness, conviction, and a faith that endures when tested.
