Sun, 14 Dec 2008 14:01:58 -0500

John 1:18 says, "No one has ever seen God." Yet, many people have been privileged to have a glimpse of His glory. In Revelation 4, John becomes one of them.

Laodicea: The Church That Kicked Out Christ

Sun, 07 Dec 2008 16:43:01 -0500

Pergamum: Holding On, But Not to All the Right Things

Sun, 09 Nov 2008 16:37:33 -0500
