Water into Wine

Live in the Light
About this episode

Today we begin a new series examining the miracles and signs Jesus performed as chronicled in the book of John. The story of Jesus and the wedding at Cana is widely known, and it is the first miracle documented in this gospel. Jesus not only turns water into wine, but into the BEST wine! Christ always provides the best because he is the best! Nothing and no one compares to our saviour, Jesus Christ. He demonstrates his supernatural power in order to cause us to understand who he is -- and to believe!
