Understanding the Spiritual Realm (Part 1)
Manage episode 430181745 series 2926524
We know of the story outlined in the Bible of the struggle between good and evil, and God’s partnering with humans towards ordering creation. But the Bible has characters we often ignore in our modern secular society - spiritual beings, the divine council, and the unseen realm referenced in Ephesians 6 and Daniel 9. This class explores how opening our eyes to the spiritual realm can add significance to our own spiritual struggles. Brian will share personally about his own journey of understanding as well as health battle and how increased spiritual awareness provides comfort and meaning.
