Revelation
It is one of the most difficult books in the entire Bible. Due to the nature of its apocalyptic literature and imagery, it has also been the victim of some wild interpretations and predictions over the centuries. In this series we hope to clear away the fog that this book can create and find the core message it holds for the church and the people of God.
