John 1:43-51 - Heaven Is Open To Us

In this sermon, Rev. Chris Vogel preaches from John 1:43-51. Here Jesus calls Philip to follow Him, who in turn invites Nathanael. Jesus continues to build his church, first through the preaching of John the Baptizer, family outreach by Andrew and now friendship evangelism that brings in Nathanael.
