What this episode covers
In this episode of the Great Men of the Bible series, host Joe Stopulos is joined by Catholic author and historian Mike Aquilina to explore the powerful story of Saint Stephen. As the first martyr of the Church, Stephen’s bold preaching, fearless witness, and Christ-like death mark a turning point in early Christianity. Found in the Acts of the Apostles, his story is short—but deeply impactful—especially in its connection to the conversion of Saint Paul. This episode dives into Stephen’s role as one of the first deacons, his dramatic defense of the faith, and the profound legacy of his martyrdom that continues to shape the Church today.
