Episode 38: Into Your Hands

Where do God's people belong now that the tomb is empty? On the Fifth Sunday of Easter, Josh traces a single prayer — "Into your hand I commit my spirit" — from David's cry for deliverance, to Jesus on the cross, to Stephen the martyr at his stoning. Through Psalm 31, John 14, Acts 7, and 1 Peter 2, this episode follows a line from trust to promise to sight to identity, arriving at Peter's claim that believers are living stones being built right now into God's house. Includes reflections on the life and death of Josh's friend Stephen Troell, who both lived for, and gave his life, for the gospel.
