7 Questions: Where is God?

NOTE: This is a recording of an online presentation. 

This week's message answers the question, "Where is God?" It was going to be about God's ethereal nature of omnipresence all-knowing omniscience.

Meet me in the virtual worship space on Sunday at 10:00 a.m. for encouragement and hope.
