About the Author Steven Straub is the son of a Baptist minister and missionary who was raised in a Word-based home where the pre-tribulation rapture theory was considered a Biblical accuracy. For years, Straub accepted this teaching as truth. However, with a thirst for prophecy beginning to develop, investigation into the Scriptures produced many alarming discrepancies that were hard to overlook. Following earnest prayer for wisdom and guidance, the Lord began to reveal truths to Straub in His Word about the Second Coming of Jesus Christ - truths that were contradictory to mainstream church teachings, but compelling enough to change a pre-tribulation rapture believer forever. Changed is a combination of years of intense research and writing that has culminated in a powerful yet simple approach to understanding Biblical prophecy - specifically in the area of the church rapture and its relation to the coming great tribulation period.
