Through the story of Saul and the medium of Endor (1 Samuel 28) and teachings from Ephesians 6:12, Romans 8, Acts 1:8, and Colossians 2:12–15, Chris highlights the reality of the spiritual world and the greater power believers have in Christ. He challenges the church to stay connected to God, choose obedience, and live empowered by the Spirit who lives within us.

In his thought-provoking sermon, “Christianity and Monkeys,” Chris Stephenson explores how the teachings of Jesus radically reshaped the value of human life and continue to influence society today.

With clarity, conviction, and compassion, he invites us to center our lives on Jesus, who changed everything by becoming one of us.
