In a sermon, when the Minister says " _______ is the right light," you probably know that the answer for the blank is Christ, right? Ministers know-- they are trained to, it's in their nature. We also know as believers and people of faith-- but just why IS Christ the right light? And what does that light allow us to see?

In fact, throughout both the Old and New Testaments, the image of Jesus as the shepherd grows clearer and clearer. Join us as Michael Moorhead shares his sermon “I am the Shepherd” and we continue our Lenten “J...

Young continues our Lenten “Journeying with Christ” Sermon Series with his Sermon “I Am the Living W...
