That's right—Jesus came in third place. At least that's according to Dr. Michael Hart, a popular author who tried to rank the top 100 most influential people in history. In this week's featured sermon—"How to Learn What You Need to Know About God"—Kevin Miller uses Hart's ranking to launch into a sermon about Jesus' question "Who do you say that I am?" As Miller shows from the text, there's only one place to find the answer to that question—from divine revelation. It's a great message on the Lordship of Christ.

This week we also feature:

• Sermon Series: Living Close, by Bryan Wilkerson
• Illustration: Buddhist Poet Longs for a Deeper Hope
