He is excited today to share his passion for God’s divine word … but that wasn’t always the case.
As a boy, Stephen’s dad had a clever way to get him to attend Sunday school. His dad said, “If you don’t go to church with us on Sunday morning, you will not be allowed to play baseball with your friends on Sunday afternoon.” Needless to say, Stephen had near-perfect attendance all those years. The Sunday following Stephen’s eighteenth birthday, his dad came to him and said, “You are now a legal adult and can make up your own mind whether you want to attend church.” Stephen was already dressed for church that morning, so he went, but rarely again except for weddings (including his own) and funerals.
Ten years later, on a Saturday morning, his 7-year old daughter asked, “Is that our church?” each time they drove past one while out running errands. The following day marked the beginning of attending church again, and a new relationship for Stephen with Jesus Christ.view less
