Stephen Baldwin is one of the famous Baldwin brothers, a family of Hollywood actors.<\/p>\n\n
Referring to his newfound faith in Christ, Stephen said, "I've never been as excited or happy about where I am in my life. There's no one I know in Hollywood who can say that."<\/p>\n\n
Stephen's wife came to Christ in 2000 and announced to Stephen, "I'm going to be serving Jesus now." Baffled at her conversion, Stephen thought, Who does this Jesus dude think he is coming around here?<\/em><\/p>\n\n The events of September 11 were pivotal in his change of mind as he realized that the impossible was possible. As Stephen describes it, "It made me say the Bible is true, and Jesus Christ could come back tomorrow."<\/p>\n\n How has his life changed? Stephen's work as an actor "has largely dried up." He won't work in a film that includes adultery, violence, or profanity.<\/p>\n\n He's traded his Porsche for a Chevy Malibu.<\/p>\n\n Stephen spends his available time preaching the gospel. He directs and hosts a DVD project aimed at reaching young people through extreme sports.<\/p>\n\n As for his marriage, Stephen and his wife are now "as one." Stephen truly is a new creation.<\/p>","protected":false},"author":30,"featured_media":0,"template":"","tax_ctp_audience":[],"tax_ctp_authors":[],"tax_ctp_categories":[165],"tax_ctp_format":[171],"tax_ctp_illustration_types":[411],"tax_ctp_multimedia":[],"tax_ctp_point_editor":[],"tax_publications":[140],"tax_ctp_tags":[3369,3478,3572,3689,3933,3937,4061,4374,4470,4537,4655,4803,4877,4914,4944,5049,5139,5181,5219,5284],"tax_ctp_topics":[384,390,403],"class_list":["post-47582","sermon-illustrations","type-sermon-illustrations","status-publish","hentry","tax_publications-ct-pastors","tax_ctp_tags-accepting-christ","tax_ctp_tags-belief","tax_ctp_tags-choice","tax_ctp_tags-conversion","tax_ctp_tags-faith","tax_ctp_tags-faith-works","tax_ctp_tags-glorifying-god","tax_ctp_tags-lifestyle","tax_ctp_tags-ministry","tax_ctp_tags-new-birth","tax_ctp_tags-pleasing-god","tax_ctp_tags-renewing-the-mind","tax_ctp_tags-salvation","tax_ctp_tags-self-denial","tax_ctp_tags-september-11-2001","tax_ctp_tags-spiritual-growth","tax_ctp_tags-testimony","tax_ctp_tags-transformation","tax_ctp_tags-uprightness","tax_ctp_tags-witnessing"],"acf":{"scripture_references":[{"first_verse":null,"add_second_verse":false,"second_verse":null},{"first_verse":null,"add_second_verse":false,"second_verse":null},{"first_verse":null,"add_second_verse":false,"second_verse":null},{"first_verse":null,"add_second_verse":false,"second_verse":null}]},"yoast_head":"\n
