Our Vision

To understand God’s word we need to use spiritual eyes. It’s easy to see what we want to see, do what seems best for us, but to truely follow God we need to do as he wants. You can have a true vision of God by receiving the Holy Spirit, just like the disciples. Don’t take our word for it – give it a go for yourself! Talk given 7 April 2019...
