Pastor Jack Morris focuses on the Lord’s second coming—the moment when He will rapture those who belong to Him. In 1 Thessalonians 4:16-17, we are given this promise: “For the Lord Himself will come down from heaven... and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air.”

This blessed hope gives us the strength to endure as we see the world around us in turmoil. Join us as we find encouragement in the promise of Christ’s return and the eternal joy that awaits those who know Him.
