The shepherds play a significant role in the Christmas story, as they were the first people invited to witness the awe-inspiring birth of Christ. This invitation into glory to some of the lowliest citizens of their day draws great parallels to the wonder of the Gospel, where the most broken and sinful of us are invited into an eternal relationship with God.

As we wrap up our Revelation series, we arrive at the end of the book only to realize that the end of the book is really about the beginning of the eternity for which we were created.

Finally. Christ returns as the capstone of God's wrath and promises. And with His arrival not only do we have a final victory over evil, but also an invitation to finally lay down the burdens of hope and faith.

In part 5 of our series, we take a look at some of the prominent figures of the Tribulation in the hopes of better understanding their role and purpose in the end times.

Through all the imagery and figures within the Tribulation period, it can be difficult to know what is actually going to happen and when. We hope this week's sermon will help clarify for us the events of the Tribulation.
