And He Shall Direct Your Stops
Has God ever halted your plans? What should we do when he tells us to 'stop?' Closed doors in our Christian lives are painful. Take courage in the fact that the same God who orders our steps also orders our stops.
Stubborn Servants…Second Chances
Disagreements are a part of life. The question is not how do we avoid them, but rather how do we deal with them when they occur? In this lesson, Stephen addresses conflict and resolution.

The dividing line between truth and error is the cry of the reformation: "Sola Scriptura!" The Bible alone tells us what is sufficient for faith and practice.

The Answer Came Knocking
Sometimes expecting the worst may prevent us from experiencing God's best. In this message Stephen reminds us why our faith in God should be a little more optimistic.
