Out of the Storm

The Grace Available . . . The Glory to be Revealed

Posted on May 27, 2016 by Pete

Double dose of fulfilled promise this morning. One from the Old Testament, the other from the New. Both concerning the same promise–God’s promise to David that He would “raise up your offspring after you, . . . establish his kingdom. … Continue reading →

God’s Glory Trailer

Posted on February 5, 2016 by Pete

The Latter Glory

Posted on December 16, 2015 by Pete
