Christ has died. Christ is risen. Christ will come again. For centuries Christians have proclaimed these central truths. The gospel that began in space and time will ultimately be fulfilled at Christ's return. And as we wait and long for Christ's return, this gospel gives us encouragement and a reason for hope.  We will use the book "Living in the End Times" by John Stott to read and discuss Paul's two letters to the church at Thessaloniki and seek to apply the truths we find there to our own lives.
