The Marriage Supper of the Lamb: Revelation 19 & The Bride of Christ

Aug 11, 2026  •  Dr. Mark Edworthy, Dr. Roger Patterson, Tim Yeager

In this episode of Sermon Conversations, the teaching pastors of CityRise Church dive into Revelation 19:6–10 as part of the sermon series "Can You Even Imagine?"


Together, they discuss the rich biblical imagery of the Church as the Bride of Christ, ancient Jewish betrothal customs, and what it truly means for believers to "make themselves ready" through righteous deeds while waiting for Jesus’ return.


They also unpack the significance of the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, the forward-looking nature of the Lord’s Supper, and how keeping eternity in view changes the way we live our daily lives on earth.

Ancient Wedding Imagery: How biblical betrothal customs mirror Christ’s covenant with His Church and His preparation of a home for us.


Making Ourselves Ready: Understanding how the "fine linen" represents the righteous acts of the saints.
