Stephen Lives for Jesus

Watch the video above and talk about it with your family. Learn more

We should live our lives like Jesus even when it’s hard.

Key Points:

  • Stephen was just a regular guy.
  • Stephen asked God to forgive the people that killed him. Acts 7:60
  • We can choose to be like Jesus, even when it’s hard. Acts 7:56

Memory Verse:

Acts 7:56 Look, I see the heavens opened and the Son of Man standing in the place of honor at God’s right hand!

Talk About It
  1. What’s your favorite part of the video? What’s one thing you learned from it?
  2. Who was Stephen? What was his job?
  3. Why did the people want to hurt Stephen?
  4. How did Stephen respond to his bullies?
  5. Read Micah 7:19-20. What does this passage say God does with our sin? What does God offer us?
  6. How will you apply this lesson to your life this week?

This is part of the Bible Storyline series.
