Maranatha is an Aramaic cry for Christ’s return. “Our Lord, Come!” He will come like a thief in
the night (Matthew 24:43). The question is, are you ready? Are the people under your influence
ready? In this sermon series, Jesus will share three powerful word pictures (parables) to help us
prepare for His glorious return.
