With this message, we are finishing our message series entitled, "Count On It." And we will answer the question, "Why is it taking so long for Jesus to return?"

As Peter wrote to young Christians they were wondering why Jesus hadn't come back yet. Jesus said he would return in "a little while", for them it seemed like it had already been a long time.

But God is not slow. He is patient. He gives us the precious gift of time so that we can know him and grow in an understanding of his grace.

It's our prayer that you can look forward with confidence to the day when Jesus returns to make all things new! Find out how to make the wait for Jesus more enjoyable and productive.

Song highlight of the week: "Living Hope" by Brian Johnson and Phil Wickham. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ifFovH-dhHw

We can look forward at God's promises and the reality of living in a world that is broken and will someday be restored when Jesus returns. This song point us to Jesus' life, death and resurrection that guarantee our future in heaven with him.
