Priests: Duties
15/11/2017 Duración: 28min"God only knows/God makes his plans/The information's unavailable to the mortal man." The Bible tells a very different story than the lyrics quoted by Paul Simon above.

I often feel closest to God when I am appreciating the things he has made a hike on a beautiful spring day, babies, the abilities of the human body and all of the unique people he created. As Glenn said, “Man can’t open their eyes without being compelled to see God.” God also speaks to us through his word.

Priesting

What does it mean to care for a city? How do we know a city and feel for it well enough that we can pray over it in our lives and serve it in our work? Psalm 36; 1 Peter 2.1-5; 2 Peter 2; Nehemiah 1.1–11
