In America today, the public square is more toxic than ever, and many churches have resolved to steer as far away as possible from anything controversial. But is that the proper role of the Church?

Continuing our discussion on how to bring the blessings of godly government in our city, state, and our nation, we are convinced that Psalm 33:12 is true: Blessed [fortunate, prosperous, and favored by God] is the nation whose God is the Lord. (AMP)

In today's message, Pastor Ron moves the discussion past the realm of personalities, politicians, and political shenanigans in general, and into the realm of policy ideas. So the question remains, “Based on the clear teachings of Scripture, are there certain policies we cannot support?” Are their certain biblical lines that cannot be crossed?

Launching in 1981 as just 30 people in a living room in Northwest Indiana, Living Stones has grown into a vibrant multi-generational church family. Stones are a product of God the Creator — formed in nature and no two are alike. As we come to faith in Jesus Christ, scripture tells us that we are like living stones in the hand of God and He is using us to build up a spiritual house. Our foundation was built on the work of nurturing and restoring healthy, biblical marriages. In continuing that mission, everything we do here at Living Stones is centered around loving, healing, and equipping individuals and families to grow into a greater likeness of Christ Jesus! By the Holy Spirit, we exist today to Renew Hearts, Restore Homes, Reform Culture and Reach the Nations with the gospel of Jesus Christ. 1 Peter 2:4-5 ”As you come to him who is the Living Stone — he was rejected by men but in the sight of God chosen and precious — you yourselves like living stones are being built up as a spiritual house.” We are a family — misfits, hypocrites, creatives, addicts, reformers, over-churched, unchurched, wanderers — each of us a stone, uniquely crafted by the hand of God, made alive through Jesus, and now living by the power of the Holy Spirit. Together, we are Living Stones.
