Description
NET Ministries presents Though They Die.
In this series, Andy and Elie engage with the things of this world through the lens of eternity, taking as inspiration John 11:25: “Jesus said to her, ‘I am the resurrection and the life. Those who believe in me, even though they die, will live.” Though the things of this present reality pass and fade, we can discover in them something of the true, the good, and the beautiful.
Join us weekly as we discuss movies, books, and music with Christ at the forefront.
