Standing in Readiness

Are you ready for what's coming? In this message, Kerry walks through Luke 17:22-37 and challenges believers to examine their posture — not just physically, but spiritually — as followers of Jesus living in the "already but not yet" of God's kingdom.

Drawing from the examples of Noah and Lot, Kerry reminds us that the people around them were busy with ordinary life while the moment of judgment crept closer. The same is true today. This sermon is a call to stop looking down and start looking up — with expectation, discernment, and readiness for the return of Christ.

In this message, you'll discover:

  • How to cultivate a posture of *longing and expectation* for Jesus' return
  • Why discernment matters — and how to avoid being misled by false signs and voices
  • What it means to *live in readiness* in the midst of everyday life
  • How to avoid the "vultures" — staying alive and hidden in Christ rather than being consumed by sin and the world
