Feast of St. Stephen: Living as Christ's Body in a Culture of Persecution

December 26, 2021 - Today is the Feast of St. Stephen the Protomartyr. By looking at his life as well as his persecution and martyrdom, we can see many very important aspects of how to live faithfully to Christ in times of building persecution. As our culture grows more godless and persecution of Christianity is on the rise, we must understand how to posture ourselves before God in order to live among those persecuting us; being assured that those who stand for Christ our God, Jesus Christ will stand for them.
