Summary
As we begin to wrap up our week on Jesus’s High Priestly prayer, today we look at what it means to reflect God’s glory. How could man ever look like God? In our broken, fallen state, can we ever reflect his glory? Let’s find out as we explore God’s heart and intention behind filling us with his Holy Spirit and giving us his new nature. May your heart and mind be open to God’s truth and will for your life today as we seek him together.
Our Scripture for today comes from John 17:22-24, and today's worship is You Came (Lazurus) by Bethel Music.
Your gift by December 31 DOUBLES to help more people connect with God through First15
Millions of people today are searching for peace. They’re searching for rest. They’re searching for something to help them find healing.
That something is a person: God himself.
And today, you can help more people connect with the God of true healing when you help expand the reach of First15 in 2022.
Thankfully, some generous friends have stepped forward with a $100,000 Matching Grant — which will DOUBLE your gift to help meet the $340,000 year-end goal and finish the year strong.
Reaching this goal in full couldn’t be more important, because every dollar given reaches one new First15 reader, listener, or viewer. And with the match, that means your $1 investment impacts two people.
