Series: “Attributes of God: Love”

Pastor Rick Robledo – Oct 13, 2024

“Sometimes we may confuse knowledge about God with actually knowing Him personally. It is vitally important to understand God’s character, truth, ways, and purposes as He has revealed Himself in the Scriptures. Knowing God personally in a saving way will transform our lives, humble us, and make Jesus the most precious of our possessions.”    -- Alistair Begg
