Jesus' teaching in Mark 13 is jammed with things that only bring up more questions. Actually, that is what Jesus is responding to -- the disciple's questions about things to come. Today, Pastor Steve does a good job of moving us from questions that we can't answer definitively to things we can learn from his teaching that is for sure and absolute: Christians are not excluded from suffering; Jesus is coming back and will be victorious; and no one knows when so we should be ready.

Today we were pleased to have Kevin Sweigard share his testimony. Being saved from an early age he has grown up in the faith and around the church. As he says, at one time in his life he was doing ministry multiple nights every week! What is great about Kevin's story is he is honest about his plateaus, his misgivings and what he has learned about continuing in his faith. Maybe his story will encourage you in your walk with Jesus!
