     | 1,284 views

    This sermon will help you understand what the glory of God is and how to experience it in your life. Christ in you means from one level of glory to another level of glory. It means experiencing His glory here on earth, to experiencing the greatest dimension of His glory in eternity.

The same applies to our understanding of the glory of God. It's not enough to have head knowledge; we must personally experience His glory in our lives. ...read more

    Part 4: Why God Often Withholds Explanation Series

    Contributed by Rev Emmanuel O. Adejugbe on Jan 23, 2026
     | 113 views

    If God is present and active, why is He so silent? We live in an age of information where we expect a 'why' for every 'what.' But in this message, we discover that God often withholds the explanation to protect the formation.

    The Question We're All Asking We've learned that God is hidden, but not absent. We've learned that silence is refinement, not punishment. We've learned that God knows us intimately, even in the darkness. But now we come to the hardest question of all. If God is really present. If ...read more
