Children of the Light, Part 2
Would you drive a race car without a seatbelt? Would you rappel without a harness? Would you skydive without a parachute? Not on your life! Well, this is your life -- your spiritual life -- so make sure you don't face it without first putting on the armor of Light.

Maxing Out Your Love Limit, Part 2
Jesus once said that the whole law can be summed up in two commands: Love God with all your heart and love your neighbor as yourself. But how do we know when we're really loving our neighbors? In this message Stephen gives us the answer from Romans chapter 13.

Paying Your Dues
How political should we as Christians be? What does the Bible say about government and our responsibility to it? Stephen reveals to us in this message that it says a lot more than we think.
Staying on Task
After twenty-five years of ecclesiastical activism, Christians have become like political crusaders, seeking to purge society of its idols rather than pray for its conversion. That's why the Apostle Paul's message in Romans 13 is as relevant to our churches today as it was to the church in Rome all those years ago.
Missing the Mark
A president once challenged Americans to "ask not what your country can do for you; ask what you can do for your country." But what should we as Christians be doing for our country? Should we try to reclaim the culture through political activism? Should we fight against immoral government sanctions? Find out now as the Apostle Paul talks to us about Politics.
Refusing the Urge to Feud
You've heard the witty old saying, "don't get mad… get even." Well in this message Stephen shows us how that way of thinking ruins friendships, families, and testimonies all the time. Is it ruining yours?
Eating Humble Pie
When the Apostle Paul said that "in Christ, there is neither Jew nor Gentile, male nor female, slave nor free," he was proclaiming a truth that is wonderful in theory, but difficult in practice. It seems that as soon as we step foot in church on Sunday mornings, our own prejudices and biases come out in a number of ways. That's why we need to keep eating "humble pie" as often as we can. We can't be spiritually healthy without it.
Beyond Greeting Cards and the Golden Rule
In Romans 12 the Apostle Paul challenges us to stop believing society's self-preserving, self-serving criteria for relationships, and start demonstrating to the world that real love -- God's love -- goes far beyond greeting cards and the golden rule.
