The Bible study on Revelation continues.

What is the most transformative relationship in a person's life? Thinkers from the Christian tradition have universally acknowledged spiritual friendship in this way.

How has the Lord worked in your life? Even those with no Biblical knowledge are competent to share how Jesus has had an impact on themselves. In today's sermon, Deacon Michael shares how God brought him to the place he now is.
