Revelation: Series Resources
We will be journeying through the book of Revelation the spring & summer of 2024. Below are some resources to help you prepare and grow through the series.
While there can be some intimidation to studying and reading the last book of the Bible, Revelation 1:3 reminds us there is blessing and understanding to be found in it:
“Blessed is the one who reads aloud the words of this prophecy, and blessed are those who hear, and who keep what is written in it, for the time is near.”
In her book on Revelation, which is a primary resource for our series, Nancy Guthrie says:
“Revelation is actually less about when Jesus will return and more about what we are to do, who we are to be, and what we can expect to endure as we wait for Jesus to return to establish his kingdom.” – Blessed: Experiencing the Promise of the book of Revelation
Primary Songs we will sing (click to go to songlist): Worship is a primary takeaway of the book. Save the playlist and listen throughout the week to prepare to worship and prepare for our gatherings.
