     | 7,660 views

    Our ultimate goal in life is to glorify God. One way in which we glorify God is by loving other believers. This sermon explores different levels of relationship, three that are inadequate, and one that demonstrates that we belong to God’s family.

It isn’t enough to see ourselves as being IN missions, but rather on a continuing mission. To be sure, being engaged in mission work is ...read more
