By Pastor Vinnie & Jonathan Martin
This week we finish our series on Jerusalem! Pastor Vinnie, Jon, and Peter explain how Jersulem finally finds its victory! God has a plan for His holy city and we have not seen the end of this amazing city of peace. The city of Peace became a blaze of war in 70AD and was toppled to the ground. The middle east has remained a mess since then with Jersulem always surprisingly at the center of takeovers, takedowns, and conflicts. Jerusalem has come to be one of the least likely places we’d look to find peace. But the final battle is not over yet. The Book of Revelation actually has a lot to say about this city’s final fate. In the New Testament Jesus declares the destruction of Jerusalem but is that really the end? Listen now! And find out why and city of hope, peace, and righteousness is cast down and destroyed. Are there lessons we can learn to prevent this from happening to us?
Pastor Vinnie is joined by his long-term friend Peter Thomas and his regular co-host Jon on the second part of this great two-part episode exploring the connection between the Historical Jesus and the history of the city called Jerusalem or Salem. In this second part on the Holy City Jerusalem, they will dig deeper into the destruct of the city and how Titus achieved his victory however the City’s big comeback is a certainty of which even today we see the strings of beginning. Listen to this amazing podcast and find out why the best is yet to come!

About Vinnie & Jon:
Vinnie is a full-time Ordained Pastor at Vienna Seventh-day Adventist Church in Vienna VA located in the beautiful Northern Virginia / DC area. He is happily married to TinaLynn for over 30 years and they have an eight-year-old son, Jose. They live, work, and Jose goes to school, on the Vienna Campus as a part of an incarnational approach to ministry. They believe in an integrated ministry approach that is balanced with a full and abundant balanced life. Core to being balanced is being centered in Pastor Vinnie’s favorite Gospel; the Gospel of John, and his favorite Bible verse in that Gospel; John 10:10. “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy. I have come that they may have life, and have it in all its fullness (abundantly)“. Living life “in all its fullness” means both being incarnational and at the same time authentically human and having fun! He describes himself as a “Child of God. Husband. Daddy. Work in progress. Follower. Leader. Sci-fi-junkie.” In addition to family life, pastoring, and working on a doctorate at Fuller Seminary, Vinnie shares the Gospel, and his passion to equip others with the power of Jesus in numerous interactive ways through www.SimplyVinnie.com
