He's the Director of Theology and Research for Proverbs 31 and works directly with Lysa Terkeurst, one of our favorite NY Times best selling authors. Today We will take a deeper dive into what the Old Testament says about the "Kingdom of God" that Jesus speaks of in Matt 6:33.

We learned last week the first story of the Bible was Jesus making the decision to give his life for us even before the world was created. Today we will learn the second story of the Bible! Watch: https://subspla.sh/w5bwfht
THE FIRST STORY OF THE BIBLE John 1:1-5 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. Watch: https://dreamers.church/media
