This week, we are looking at the beginning of Jesus' final major discourse in the book of Matthew. He is going to address the disciples questions about the destruction of the temple and signs of the end of the age. It can be very easy for us to get caught up in signs and trying to decipher exactly when Christ will come. In reality, Christ is trying to teach his disciples that what matters most is not when he will return, but how they live in light of his return. Let's pray that we will live faith lives of endurance for the glory of Christ.
