When Jesus returns, will you be ready—or scrambling to get your spiritual life in order?
In this message, Preaching Minister Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., continues the Coming Soon series with a powerful look at Matthew 25:1–13, the parable of the ten bridesmaids. Jesus’ story reminds us that His return will be sudden, surprising, and glorious—and that preparation isn’t about fear or perfection, but faith, joy, and readiness.
From a crazy wedding story to lessons about “borrowed oil” and cell-phone batteries, Gordon invites us to keep our faith fresh, live with purpose, and look forward to the greatest celebration in history—the arrival of the Bridegroom.
