Wednesday 12/30/15   Series: Living in the Kingdom XII Message – Unified in Purpose III Click here for the Video   The Knowledge of His Will in the Kingdom We ended with Ephesians 1 last Sunday, where Paul prayed a very similar prayer over that church for the exact same reasons…”Ever since we heard of your faith in Christ and your love for all the saints do not cease to pray for you…”.

Wednesday 12/09/15 Series: Living in the Kingdom VIII Message – Union I Click here for the Video Living in the Kingdom – Pleasing God by embracing our union with Him We are starting a new segment in our teachings on Living in the Kingdom.
