GOD AND ME, ACTUALLY: What God is Really Like

November 4, 2024

This is Session 7 of our Fall Study: God and me, Actually, which is a 10-week expedition through Zechariah 3:1-7. After spending a week exploring Our True Identity, Eric, Rachael, and David turn to the question of, "What is God really like?" To truly experience an authentic relationship with God, we not only need to grasp how God views us, but also embrace the truth of who God is. We all have views of God rooted in our upbringing, experience, and life circumstances, which are often distorted. We need to let God speak for Himself and for most of us, it will surprise us. What if God is different than what we expected? Our view of God is arguably the most important thing about us. Hope you enjoy the conversation!
