Coventry Cathedral is a beautiful picture of saints in waiting. It was bombed by the Nazis in the 1940s, but instead of tearing it down completely and starting all over, they built the new cathedral next to it with a large glass wall facing it with windows full of etched images of saints and angels praising God in heaven. Now, you can't see the rubble, unless you look through these biblical promises of heaven.
Coventry Cathedral is a good metaphor for life. But God has given us something better than an etched window to change our perspective of past and/or current trauma. He gave us the Revelation of John.
Listen to this week's sermon to learn more about how you can see every day of your life through the lens of God's promise of heaven.
