First Christian Martyr

The First Christian Martyr is traditionally believed to be Saint Stephen, one of the earliest followers of Jesus. He was known for his strong faith and powerful preaching. When he defended Christianity before Jewish leaders, they accused him of blasphemy. As a result, he was stoned to death around 34 AD, making him the first person in Christian history to die for his beliefs. His martyrdom symbolizes unwavering commitment to faith and the spreading of Christianity despite persecution.
