Welcome to the InTouch podcast with Charles Stanley for Wednesday, June 18th.

God is active and involved in our everyday lives.

Let's learn how to recognize the greatness of God in today's podcast.

When you think of God, what comes to your mind? Is it a person, person with a body, a force,

God is clothed with greatness. And then if you slip all the way over to 2nd Peter, for example, chapter 1, and here is a reference to what Peter was more than likely

referring to when he and James and John met the Lord Jesus on the Mount of Transfiguration,

and the Lord Jesus was just transformed right in front of them with Moses and Elijah. And he says in verse 16 of this first chapter
