Doug’s Coffee Break Episode 479 - Acts 6:12-7:1 - The accusation of Stephen

As Stephen stood before the Sanhedrin in Acts 6:12–7:1, false witnesses twisted his words, accusing him of threatening the temple and rejecting the Law. Yet, rather than responding with fear, Stephen’s face shone like an angel’s—a powerful sign of God’s presence. Was this moment a parallel to Moses? And how did it set the stage for his bold defense? Join us as we explore the charges against Stephen, the deeper theological tensions at play, and the striking imagery that foreshadows what’s to come.
