(Guest: Mark Rae) If we were to review your life’s record today, what would it reveal? Many of you will have a few things you’re proud of and happy to reveal but maybe there will also be other things in your life that you regret, things that you might feel embarrassed to reveal. This is where God’s mercy and grace come in. But what about the life record of Christ? As we complete this series on the uniqueness of Christ, Mark Rae will take us to Christ’s unique record.

(Guest: Mark Rae) As we continue our series on the uniqueness of Christ, we recall from our last two programs His unique reality in all eternity, Christ’s unique relationship to God the Father, the equality that He claimed and the power and authority that are Christ’s.

(Guest: Mark Rae) For all who believe in Jesus for forgiveness of sins and eternity with Him, we have been given a beautiful relationship into the family of God. But no relationship is quite like that between the Father and the Son. As we continue our series on the uniqueness of Christ, we are going to closely examine that heavenly relationship. Mark Rae will help us to make life application for our personal walk with Christ and our relationship with others.

(Guest: Mark Rae) What was it like to be among the first who encountered the risen Christ? Our guest Mark Rae, Vice President of Community Development at Grace School of Theology, will take us back to the Scripture to consider, not only the excitement and joy, but also the fear and doubt from those first encounters.  Are there similarities to our own encounter with the living Christ?  The truth that motivated the men and women in Jesus’ day is the same truth that can motivate us today.
