Central West End Church

Have you ever wondered why God allows such pain and suffering in the world? It's a common objection against belief in the God of the Bible. It is also a common question for Christians to wrestle with. The good news is that God has given us a whole book of the Bible that addresses that very issue. Join us as we explore the problem of suffering in the book of Job.

To our modern ears, the second coming of Jesus Christ sounds like a flight from reality. But what if it is the ultimate reality, in light of which nothing in our lives can remain the same? Whether you're exploring following Jesus, or have been following him for decades, none of us can ignore his emphasis on this and its implications for our lives. Join us for the concluding sermon in our series on Revelation!

It's easy to think of Revelation as a fantastical book that's only concerned with the future, and therefore meaningless for our lives right now. But Revelation gave the first Christians something that enabled them to face unimaginable suffering and persecution. If we see what they saw, we can have what they had.

Stories help us makes sense of our lives. Especially, they give us hope, because we want to imagine that the story is headed somewhere good. If that impulse is just an evolutionary code, then we are fools to believe it. But this passage shows us that every storyline finds its ultimate happy ending in Jesus.

Sometimes things look evil on the surface, but when you dig a little deeper, you find a hidden beauty and power. The idea of God's judgment is like that. Few things are more offensive in our culture. But this passage shows us a God whose justice brings transformative healing.
