This message unpacks the big story of the Bible and what compelled the first disciples to share the good news of God's Kingdom, and how we too share in this mission to tell the good news and to compel others to follow Jesus.

    Judgment Day is the climactic point of human history when God executes his righteous justice over the whole earth. It's the day when justice is served, and payback and amends are made for every wrong. For those in Christ, this won't be a day of horror, it will be a day of rejoicing as we gain our reward of eternal life.

    The “last days” began with the first coming of Jesus. From the time of Jesus's ascension to the closing of the New Testament canon, the apostles believed Jesus's return would be “soon”. Now it's been about two thousand years since, and the world has not passed away. As a result, many of us struggle to feel the urgency to live as the apostles instructed. How do we live in the last days that have lasted so long and may last for generations longer?
