The Beginning of the End

The cartoon character holds a sign saying, “The End Is Near.” For Christians, this is not a message of fear. Instead, it is a message of watchful hope. Scripture teaches that the End Times began with Christ’s first coming, especially his death and resurrection. Christ will come again on judgment day. Now we live in that in-between time, when salvation has been won, but full glory is still to come. It’s the beginning of the end. 


Jesus himself makes clear that no one knows the day or hour of his return. This uncertainty is not meant to trouble us, but to keep us spiritually awake. Each day becomes an opportunity to live in repentance and faith, turning from sin and trusting fully in Christ’s finished work for us. 


Our preparation for the end is not about trying to predict signs or earn God’s favor. Instead, it is about remaining rooted in Jesus: hearing the Word, receiving the sacraments, and trusting the promises of forgiveness. These are God’s ways of keeping us ready.


 “The Beginning of the End” reminds us that history is moving toward our own death and toward Christ’s return. For believers, that end is truly a beginning.

Hope for everyday

Hope can be a rare guest in our hearts. Hopes for the future fade away. Hopes for peace are shattered by conflict.  Hopes placed in politicians are dashed. Hopes for our relationships with others get torn apart. Hopes for our own lives don't match the present reality.  


But there's good news. Hope is delivered.


Living Hope Lutheran Church wants to fill you with God's message of hope. The hope God gives you is more than just the hope of wishful thinking. The hope God gives you is a living hope, a firm conviction built on the resurrection of Jesus from the dead. 


Hope forever in Jesus brings hope for your every day.
