Can You See the Glory of Jesus?

Compiled and Presented by:Dave Stewart

Synopsis: It is vital that we overcome our own conceptions of Jesus and open our eyes to see His glory. Jesus is not just a man, a teacher, a wiseman, or a prophet. He is Deity. Our Creator who came to be our Savior and Lord. Seeing His glory will transform us.
