Life, Hope and Truth Presents

Understanding WHY Jesus built a Church means understanding WHAT that Church was intended to do. The Bible shows us that the Church is a community—intimately connected with God’s plan for the human race and tasked with spreading the gospel message to the world. But the purpose of the Church points far beyond this physical life and into the next—and it has everything to do with YOUR purpose too.

Presented by Phil Sandilands.

There’s a growing movement in Israel to one day build a new temple on the Temple Mount in Jerusalem—but that’s one of the most fiercely contested pieces of real estate in the world. 

The Bible tells us there WILL be a third temple in Jerusalem. Phil Sandilands discusses how exactly that will happen and what it has to do with the return of Jesus Christ.

The Bible itself tells us that not everyone who claims to follow Christ is ACTUALLY a follower of Christ. If Jesus really is your Lord and Savior, these five things ought to be true in your life.
