Podcast Special: Sign in the Heavens Neowise (New Wisdom) Jul 17, 2020

Show notes

On March 27, 2020, the astronomical telescope Neowise discovered a comet approaching our solar system. The comet was named after the telescope and continued toward the sun. On July 3rd, it was expected to burn up as it rounded the sun. Instead, it continued its orbit and continues on its path. Today, it is visible in many parts of the earth.
In this podcast, we consider the potential of this comet being a sign and its meaning to us today. Could it be God is calling out for us pray for new wisdom?
