About this episode

In this episode, Shawn Mandoli discusses the hope-filled truth of Christ’s return as outlined in 1 Thessalonians, emphasizing living with purpose and spiritual readiness.

In Part 7 of our series through 1 Thessalonians, we unpack the hope-filled truth of Christ’s return and what it means for how we live today. Paul reminds a young church—and us—that eschatology isn’t meant to create fear or speculation, but to anchor us in hope, holiness, and readiness. Because Jesus is coming back, we grieve with hope, live with purpose, and stay spiritually alert—encouraging one another and standing firm in faith. This message calls us to lift our perspective beyond the temporary and live as people of light, grounded in the promise that we will be with the Lord forever. ______________________________________________________________________________________ NEW HERE?
