Contributed by Ken Henson on Sep 23, 2017

John’s first glimpse of Jesus in this Revelation is extraordinary and strange. I’d like to focus on instead is where Jesus is. Jesus is in the midst of the Church and the Church is in the palm of His hand.

Love Them Back

Contributed by Christian Cheong on Oct 28, 2014

Expect oppositions in life and ministry, but stay focused. Listen to what God has to say, not man. Repay with grace, not justice.
