Foundations with Mandy and Robbo

We’ve been learning about the Messiah for some time now, trying to nail down His identity. We’re going to look at the life of Moses for a few programs, because the Jewish people hold Moses in extremely high regard, and yet God promised to raise up another greater than Moses for His people to follow. Could that be Jesus? That’s going to start our conversation today on Foundations.Your support sends the gospel to every corner of Australia through broadcast, online and print media: https://www.vision.org.au/donateSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
