In the infamous pandemic of 2020 the world was forced into tyranny through lock-downs and unlawful mandates. Steve could read the writing on the wall and anticipated that the assault was really about eliminating the Church. Jesus said in Matthew 16:18 that it was the Ekklesia (Church) that would be the offensive force against the working of hell, and therefore is one of the most essential and vital entities in America. This is the first pastor in the nation to take on the Goliath of tyranny and become the "tip of the spear" for the defense of the Church. Steve, his family and their Beloved Church was vilified and ravaged by the media and culture for his First Amendment stance. Eventually the outcome was that the illegal and discriminatory mandates were overturned by the Supreme Court of the United States and all of the Churches in America were victoriously Liberated!
