7: The Best of Stryper is the seventh release and second compilation album by Christian metal band Stryper. Released in 2003, it is the second compilation album produced by the band, and its recording and release led to the reunion of the original members of the band.

Hollywood Records asked the members of Stryper to record new tracks to be placed in a compilation album celebrating the 20th anniversary of the band. Frontman Michael Sweet wrote two new songs that were recorded by the original 4 members of the group. This marked the first time in 12 years that Stryper recorded together in the studio.

After the release of the album, the band went on a 36 show reunion tour, their first in 12 years. Shows were recorded for the live album 7 Weeks: Live in America, 2003, which was released on May 18, 2004.
