    Paul talked a lot about his faith and his Jesus because he knew who his God was. And what Paul did is something you and I can do... if we know God the way he did. What did Paul know about God that we sometimes don't?

    This message discusses postmodernism. In today's moral relativism, truth is seen as subjective, and it can supposedly change with circumstances. So, how do we share about Jesus who is "the way, the TRUTH, and the life?"

Modernism and postmodernism are eras, or time periods of societal thought and ...read more
