Specifically, we will be discussing how to engage personal relationships with Mormons, and we will be examining the differences between what Mormonism believes about Jesus and what the Bible teaches about Him.

Because of widespread sickness in the church, we will not be meeting together in person this week. We will be live-streaming the teaching at http://www.ustream.tv/channel/oasisoftruth. If you have questions about the teaching, please email them to pastorjoe@oasisoftruth.org. If I can answer them immediately/at the end of the broadcast, I will do so. Otherwise, I'll get back to you via email after the broadcast.

I look forward to "seeing" you on Tuesday and seeing you in person on Sunday.
