Sermon 8 in our Doctrinal Foundations sermon series. In this sermon, anchored in Acts 1:6-11, Pastor Matt talks Eschatology, or what we believe about the end of the human history. There are a lot of things about eschatology that are not plain, and we're not going to be closed-handed about those things.
