Fifth Sunday of Easter (Traditional)
In the midst of a world that often feels predictable—where anger escalates and fear takes hold—the witness of Saint Stephen reveals something entirely different. His response to suffering, marked by peace, forgiveness, and unwavering trust, points beyond human strength to a deeper reality.
Drawing from Acts 6–7, Rev. Cody Turner reflects on how the death and resurrection of Jesus reshape not only how we understand suffering, but how we understand our very lives. Just as an unexpected act of love once changed the course of a young writer’s life, so too the love of God in Christ breaks into our lives—opening a new way of seeing everything.
To be in Christ is to know that our lives are not our own, but are held—securely and eternally—in the hands of a loving God.
