That We Might Know Him
This is the 2008 Message Series through John's Gospel (and other books of the Bible that contribute to this theme). The purpose of this series is that we, as God's children, might know the Father with greater intimacy and love, not by simply filling our heads with knowledge, but by filling our hearts with Gospel truths.
