This week, the early Church faces a pivotal turning point where intense persecution triggers the geographical expansion of the Gospel. Following the martyrdom of Stephen, a great persecution scatters believers from Jerusalem throughout Judea and Samaria. What began as a tragedy becomes the catalyst for fulfilling Jesus’s command in Acts 1:8 to take the Gospel "to the ends of the earth."
