    What would it be like to see the risen Lord? John did - but it was in a lonely and desolate place. Are you in such a place? You might be surprised at what the Lord can show you there.

But in order to understand the book we also need to understand its author. John was ...read more

    God gave the revelation of His plan to Jesus who in turn revealed it to John.

This morning, we’re going to do things a little different from the way we usually do, and so I ask you to bear with me. It is good to be in the house of God this Sabbath day. I stand ...read more
