Practicing the Truth of Easter
The Apostle Paul once said that the resurrection is the most important part of the Gospel. Do you know why he said that? In this message Stephen discusses why the Resurrection lies at the heart of Christian doctrine and practice.
Pinning Our Hope on Easter
On Sunday you probably sang hymns about the Resurrection, and heard a message about the resurrection, and celebrated the Resurrection with other believers. But let me ask you . . . how is the Resurrection affecting you today? How will it change the way you think and act over the next 24 hours? In this message Stephen challenges us to take what we heard in Church on Sunday and make it the focal point of our lives Monday through Saturday.
