Description

How does our sun point us to the glory of God? It's massive! It would take 109 planet Earths to cover the 864,000-mile diameter of the sun. It's blinding, powerful, and according to modern science, the sun sits on an invisible, fireproof canvass of space-time fabric! 
It is truly a wonder to behold. As long as man has lived and moved upon the Earth, humans have studied our nearest star, worshiped it, sweated underneath its heat, performed rituals by it, kept time with it, raised crops with it, and sent satellites and telescopes up into the heavens to observe it more closely. 
And for everything we do know about it, there remains much mystery. 
So come along with Wayne and Dan and see the sun as a marvelous creation of the Lord Jesus Christ.  The Bible describes God as a "sun and shield" in Psalm 84:11.  The sun and all stars give Him praise (Ps. 148:1-3).
