The Church of Truth Has a Web Site

Last fall I first heard about the Church of Truth, an independent New Church group based in Louisville, Kentucky, led by brother Edward Miller. Chara Odhner gave a brief description of brother Miller in the April 2008 issue (PDF) of BACON Bits (4-5). Here's an excerpt:
Up until four years ago he was a Baptist minister, but he recently came strongly to see things from a New Church point of view. He has a radio show on Saturday evenings at 6:30pm in Louisville Kentucky (on what could be called the northern edge of the Bible Belt), and reaches thousands with Swedenborg’s message. He is being given a Johnny Appleseed award by the Swedenborg Foundation because he has made many aware of Swedenborg and has built up a core reading group of some thirty interested people....
This group now has a basic web site (www.truechurchoftruth.com) which includes their mission statement and vision statement:
Our mission statement is to Love the Lord thy God Savior Redeemer Jesus Christ with all thy heart, thy mind, thy soul, thy strength and thy neighbor as thyself and to be of use and of service.

We hold these truths to be self evident with the end in view that every man be born again according to the scripture for it is written... "Except a man be born again he cannot see the Kingdom of God. Except a man be born of the water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Kingdom of God" (John 3:3,5).
They also have a MySpace page (www.myspace.com/truechurchoftruth) where I think you can listen to and buy messages from Brother Miller.
