God Is Light, God Is Love, & God Is Life Series

Contributed by Melvin Amos on Aug 20, 2011

In this series I am going to attempt to teach who God really is. Christians, and those in the world get this view of who they think God is, yet it does not quite show the whole image of who God is.

We say, "well if God is so loving, why is there so much cruelty in the world?" Let’s not make ...read more

Joshua pointed the way so tohers could live victoriously in the land God promised them. Should we not also do the same?

Standing in the Crowd? Talk about vision Having vision/sense of purpose- important for people- it is a natural part of life, it gives us a sense of why we were created.
