In John 14:12-14, Jesus declares that His people would accomplish 'greater works' than His. What are these greater works the church would accomplish, and how could they be even greater than Christ's miracles? With biblical insight, author Ryan McGraw takes a closer look at this passage, along with the book of Acts, and explains that these greater works are connected to corporate prayer and faithful preaching, which are vital to the life of every local congregation.
