I believe Christians are in the great tribulation, I don't see anyway around it. The Left Behind series is an example of pre-trib dealing with this fact. If the rapture or meeting the Lord in the air happens before the tribulation then you have to figure out who the Christians will be in the Tribulation. Who does God seal on Earth with a seal of protection? Revelation 9:4 Some believe that they are Jews and that God deals with the nation of Israel because it is the Jews that are sealed in Revelation. Revelation 7:3 "Saying, Hurt not the earth, neither the sea, nor the trees, till we have sealed the servants of our God in their foreheads. 4 And I heard the number of them which were sealed: and there were sealed a hundred and forty and four thousand of all the tribes of the children of Israel." It is possible if this verse is taken literally that Christians have been raptured in Revelation and are replaced on the Earth by the Jews who God is ministering to. I believe the number of Christians would be much higher than 144,000 at least I believe that there are more Christians now than that. It is possible that Christians are taken before the great tribulation. But it is not possible that there are no Christians during the Revelation because God seals His people before His wrath.
