We're back with a new episode for you. Lucas is joined by Rev. William Boekestein to chat about Eschatology - a big word that just means the doctrine of the End Times. This is not a topic widely preached or talked about in our circles but is incredibly important to understand.

We hope that this episode is informative and inspires you to have your conversations about Eschatology.
