Moral Mirror (3 of 5)
Series: God in The Mirror
Miles McPherson
Message Recap:
God made us all in His image so that when He looked at us, it would be as if He were looking in the mirror, as His attributes would be reflected back to Him. Continuing our series on the aspects of God’s I.M.A.G.E., today we will learn about being God’s Moral Mirrors.
