God’s delights most in his own glory, and God is glorified when we know him. This morning we conclude our series in John 17 by addressing one of the most prominent themes in Jesus’ prayer for his disciples: unity.

Why is it important for Jesus’ followers to be unified? Where does unity come from? And what is the goal of unity? Listen to hear more!

People of the Word or People of the World

God’s delights most in his own glory, and God is glorified when we know him. But how do we know God, and not just about him?

The primary way we know God is through his Word – both the scriptures and the Word made flesh, Jesus Christ. This morning we examine the results and promises that God makes when we commit to keeping his word.

Glory: God's Deepest Desire

The Westminster Shorter Catechism begins this way: “What is the chief end of man?”
”To glorify God and enjoy him forever.”

We might also ask, “What is the chief end of God?”

This morning we explore God’s deepest desire, and we see how God’s passion for his own glory is our greatest good.
