THE GREATEST STORY: Chapter 3– The End

(September 15, 2024) Dr Jim McClure concludes this series on The Greatest Story…

What lies ahead of us? We are all keen to know what the future holds.

THE GREATEST STORY: Chapter 1 – The Beginning

(August 28, 2024) Dr Jim McClure succinctly shares some great truths…

It contains history, philosophy, poetry and religion. It is a story of love and hatred, humility and pride, heroism and cowardice, generosity and greed. It reveals some of the best characteristics of people and some of the worst. All the various parts of the story blend together to uncover truly the greatest story ever told.
