A moving video put to the music of one my favorite hymns:
The Attributes of God: Self-Existent
God said to Moses, “I AM WHO I AM.” (Exodus 3:14) Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God. (Psalm 90:2) In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was […]

So You Want to Be a Radical Christian?
