Beholding. A podcast simply endeavouring to seek out what God is like. 

Johan takes you on a journey through the various descriptions the Bible gives us about what is God like. What are his likes and dislikes? What does he think and feel? What kinds of things does he do, and what does he do them? What’s his personality like?

This is not about opinions or experiences. It is simply about exploring every little attribute of God that we can find in scripture.

Who is this man, this Holy One whom we are following?

If God was not wrathful against these and so many other distortions of our human vocation, he is

“God’s heavenly dwelling place represents the environment that God enjoys to live in. God’s desire is that places of this type would spring up all across this planet and that people would exercise the same zeal for that as David did. God’s plan is that this heavenly reality would be released here on earth, for even down here it’s worship that creates a dwelling place for

When we are on the beach we only see a small part of the ocean. However, we know that there is much more beyond the horizon. We only see a small part of God's great love, a few jewels of His great riches, but we know that there is much more beyond the horizon. The best is yet to come, when we see Jesus face-to-face. Corrie Ten BoomLast week we finished Revelation 4, what I call
