"As close as we may seem to be to the edge, we are never far from the center of our hope, the Advent of our salvation."How would you describe the center of your hope?//Luke 21:34-36Be on guard so that your hearts are not weighed down with dissipation and drunkenness and the worries of this life, and that day catch you unexpectedly, like a trap. For it will come upon all who live on the face of the whole earth. Be alert at all times, praying that you may have the strength to escape all these things that will take place, and to stand before the Son of Man.//This episode was written and recorded by Rev.
