The Simple Wisdom of Being Ready

Scripture Text: Matthew 25:1-13

We are beginning with The End in mind. We believe that Jesus will indeed return but we do not know when He shall arrive. As a form of waiting, we are planting a church - in order that, when He does return, we might see ourselves, our neighbors and our city redeemed. Matthew 25 contains some of Jesus’ most sober and yet practical teaching on His second coming. Our role is to get ready, to faithfully steward all that He has given us in order that we might welcome Him with gladness at the moment of His return.
