When living through difficult times, such as those we are facing in our world today, it's easy to get frustrated with the situation and question what the future holds. But, as believers, we need to remember that "perilous times" will come at the end of this age, and that we have hope (confidence) for the future in our Savior, Jesus Christ. In this message, we begin looking at 4 characteristics of our wonderful hope described in Philippians 3:20-21: that our hope is in a place - heaven, and that our hope is in a person - our Savior, Jesus Christ.
