Summary

Empty worship, copies of temples, and priests in rooms full of… nothing. Have you ever felt like you were going through the motions, but God wasn't there? In today's episode, Sam, John, and Ron welcome Frank Viola and pepper him with questions about his Restoration Appreciation presentation at Great Lakes Christian College. Hear why Frank claims, 'The old work of God usually attacks or dismisses the new work of God,' and how we can be careful not to be part of that old work which attacks the new. How can we discern God's movements so that we are not left going through the motions in empty rooms? We encourage you to check out more from Frank on YouTube
