Mr. Stephen George Jarrard

Stephen G. Jarrard; born in Brooklyn, New York August 1948. Graduated from Massapequa high school class of 1966. Did four years in the Navy as a damage controlman aboard the USS Saratoga CVA 60. Earned an associated degree in fire science while employed as a federal firefighter at which time he had a spiritual awakening that turned his life upside down and inside out. Dropped out of the " rat race " to study the scriptures ( i.e. the bible )and became a disciple of Jesus Christ as a 100% non-denominational Christian. He met his beautiful wife Marcia in 1981 and was married that Christmas eve. Reentered the workplace as a firefighter with the Cobb County Georgia F.D. and left after 9 years to follow a calling on his life to do the work of an evangelist. He toured the country going to Native American pow wows and Indian festivals to share the gospel of Christ with Native people.

Upon hearing a series of lessons about the heptadic pattern of the number 7 he realized then, that he would be alive to see the return of Christ. At this time he devoted the next two decades to studying eschatology ( study of end times ) and slowly developed his eschatology into a book, The Sign, which addresses a most peculiar question with a unexpected answer from Mt. 24:3, What will be the sign of your coming?
