John 4:24 God is Spirit & M81 Bode's Galaxy
Step into a journey—not only across space and time, but into a realm where creation reveals the heart of the Creator.
In this third episode of our continuing series, we travel 11.6 million light-years to the M81 Galaxy, one of the most striking grand-design spiral galaxies in the universe. First recorded by Johann Elert Bode in 1774 as a faint smudge of light, M81 now unfolds in stunning clarity through modern astrophotography—revealing a galaxy rich with structure, history, and meaning.
Along the way, you’ll encounter:
The open, revealing spiral arms of M81, offering a rare glimpse into galactic design
Hubble’s discovery of luminous “blue blobs”—star clusters born between galaxies
A supernova whose fading light uncovered a hidden stellar companion
A central black hole seventy million times the mass of our Sun, shaping everything around it
As we explore these cosmic wonders, we turn to Scripture to reflect on a deeper truth: God is Spirit—eternal, invisible, and yet profoundly personal. Through M81, we contemplate God’s omniscience, omnipotence, and omnipresence, and how He graciously reveals Himself through Christ and the Holy Spirit.
This is Video #3 in our ongoing series exploring the incomparable beauty of God’s universe and the enduring truth of His Word.
Until next time — read your Bible, pray, and practice His presence.
May the grace and mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you always.
