  • Spiritual Growth

    I am so grateful for John. He is the clearest teacher of the Scriptures I’ve ever listened to. And I’ve been a Christian since 1987. Every teaching on Truth & Light podcast brings me closer in my relationship with Christ. Hallelujah, praise be TO GOD. And a big thank you to John and his crew for their obedience to the Gospel.
