Life verse: I John 3:2,3 – Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when he appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is. Everyone who has this hope in him purifies himself, just as he is pure.

Stephen Russell was born in Bethesda, Maryland. After his school years at Little Flower Elementary and Northern High School, he attended Rosedale Bible School two summers (1974, 1975) and studied at George Mason University (1986-1988) and Wheaton Graduate School, earning an M.A. in Church History and Theology (1989). His voluntary service experiences include two summers in Germany (1978, 1982), Choice Books (1981), and a halfway house (1980).
