This week’s scripture reading is taken from 1st Thessalonians, which discusses the Rapture, an event when believers will be taken up into the sky. According to Christian faith, Jesus is expected to return soon, and when that happens, His kingdom will be fully established, ending hunger, thirst, sadness, pain, suffering, and death. Many people see this as a vision of heaven on earth. As we gather for worship this Sunday, think about the message of hope God may have for you while we patiently wait for the revelation of God’s masterpiece.
