equipping the saints for the work of ministry – ephesians 4:12
Beautiful St. Mark’s Anglican Church, Arlington, TX hosted the One Body: Hope for the Persecuted conference last September. St. Mark’s is also home to the Bishop Keith Ackerman baseball field!
I wouldn’t be surprised if Jesus was standing out of honor of the first martyr. Jesus knows what it is like to be a human and experience painful death. Did He say to the angels, “That’s My son, Stephen! He’ll be here soon!” I think so.
There was no need for directions to Baby Jesus from the angel. No need for a GPS. The shepherds, by this sign, knew exactly where to go – to the place where they themselves had wrapped pure, spotless little Passsover lambs in swaddling cloths.
