  • Where Are You? The Greatest Love Story Ever

    In this special episode of The Edge: Truth in Focus, we delve into the profound connection between Genesis and Matthew chapter 2 to uncover The Greatest Love Story Ever Told. The journey begins with God’s first question to humanity in Genesis: "Where are you?"—a tender call of a loving Father searching for His children. The story comes full circle in Matthew 2:2, as the magi ask, "Where is he who has been born king of the Jews?"—humanity's heartfelt search for their Creator and Savior.
    Through these questions, we explore the depth of God's love, His relentless pursuit of us, and our longing to find Him. Join us as we reflect on the divine relationship that unites these two timeless questions in the ultimate story of reconciliation and redemption.
