Notes:
The pursuit of knowing God is an incredible, inspirational, and at times, daunting journey. What will we discover? How will it reshape our current understanding? Is God characterized by anger, boundless love, or some combination of the two? No matter what our current thoughts about God we may hold, the reality is that God is way bigger and better than we could ever imagine. He is more loving, caring, and perfect than our minds can grasp. Ultimately, He is inherently good. This truth forms the cornerstone for embarking on a deeper, more personal journey of knowing God. In today’s episode, Ross O’Hair and Ben Brezina begin a mini-series on knowing God. In their discussion, they delve into the significance of deepening our understanding of God and offer insights into how we can achieve it. Their answers to the ‘why’ and ‘how’ emphasize that truth can indeed set us free and help us grow in our knowledge of God and love for him.

Philippians 3:8 – “More than that, I count all things to be loss in view of the surpassing value of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord…”
