Coming soon "You say you want a Revelation"

The book of Revelation is the most misunderstood book in the Bible. It has influenced and continues to influence pop cultural, politics, and religion. It shows up science fiction, movies, poetry, and conspiracy theories about microchips, and barcodes. It has influenced political discourse, and actions especially in the US.  John’s visions in Revelation reach far beyond anything their ancient author could have imagined. In these times it is important to understand Revelation in its original context. With all that is going on in the world it is important that we read Revelation well. Only when we understand Revelation’s ancient contexts can we begin to find meaning for our own.

” A world occupied by an oppressive empire, a marginalized people, and a God committed to justice. Where a beast overthrown was a declaration of authority and a falling star was a statement of evil’s demise. Where symbols gave voice to resistance and visions provided a glimpse of hope. A world utterly and entirely ancient.”

Revelation for Normal People, Robin J. Whitaker
