Seeing The Father In The Son
Have you ever considered how Jesus describes the Father for us? The Bible says that Jesus came to make The Father Known. This means that we can see "The Father" in "The Son."

This is a practical look at the assurances that families need and that dad's can communicate. These are the assurances that remind us how much our Heavenly Father loves us, and how deeply we can trust Him. THE BIG IDEA: Every Earthly Dad Needs The Heavenly Father!
