Acts 7:17-60 - "Relationship over Religion"

Welcome to today's episode, where we dive deep into the transformative power of God's Word with Pastor Erik Lydick with First Baptist Church of Hightstown. In this sermon, titled "Relationship over Religion," we explore Acts 7:17-60, Stephen's passionate defense before the Sanhedrin. This powerful passage challenges us to move beyond the rituals of religion and embrace the vibrant, personal relationship God desires to have with each of us. Stephen's testimony is a bold reminder that God's presence isn’t confined to a building or a system but is alive and active in the hearts of His people. As we journey through his words, we’ll uncover timeless truths about faith, grace, and the courage it takes to live for Christ in a world that often resists Him. Whether you're tuning in from your commute, your quiet time, or a busy day, we pray this message inspires and equips you to seek relationship over religion and experience the fullness of God’s love in your life. Let’s get started!
