RUF at Mercer University

In our final sermon on Revelation we ask, “What will life actually be like for us when Jesus returns and restores all things?” Join us as we dive into what the Bible has to say about the kinds of lives, activities, and relationships Jesus has in store for us when He ushers His people into eternity!

What does God have in store for eternity? It’s not floating on clouds. It’s not a never-ending worship night. It’s something far better. Listen in to see what Revelation 21 has to show us about God’s greatest desire for you.

What will it be like when Jesus returns? Revelation and other parts of The Bible tell us it will begin with a resurrection and a judgment. Join us as we explore what this judgment will look like and consider the challenging topic of hell. What is it like? Why do people go there? You may be surprised at what The Bible has to say.
