Glory Glimpse: POWER OF GOD

Christ, the Power of God, is our focus today.  When we accept the precious gift of eternal life in Christ Jesus, we actually receive God Himself into the clay jar of our human life!  Eternal life is not just a gift from God; it is the gift of God Himself: what an exciting distinction!  OurContinue reading “Glory Glimpse: POWER OF GOD”

Glory Glimpse: OMEGA
