The Seven Churches of Revelation

Would it surprise you to know that God Himself is aware that not all those who claim to be Christians actually behave and act like Christians? You see, God isn't fooled by anyone. He knows the hearts and minds of every man, woman, and child. He cares deeply that His Church lives up to the name and example that His Son Jesus provided. In the book of Revelation, John is given a message to carry to Seven Churches. These messages are a mix of encouragement and caution, praise and warning, truth and grace. It just so happens that these are words we all need to hear.

This series will study each one of the Seven Churches in the book of Revelation, looking at what it takes to have genuine faith in a world filled with spiritual opposition. If you are curious about the Christian faith and curious what the heart and life of a true Christ follower should look like, then this series is for you.
