"Whatever is going to happen—whatever the literal next things are that happen in my life—this symbolic vision of God means that in the end, it's going to be alright. I can trust the God who made time to steward time all the way to its conclusion."
— Jen Wilkin
Today's Episode: Does the book of Revelation intimidate you? Maybe even scare you a little? Or do you wonder how it could relate to your life in the slightest? On today's episode, Jen Wilkin acknowledges the scary and the weird in Revelation while pointing our hearts to the true purpose of the book: reassurance. The God who is holy and mighty is coming back to make all things right, and we can take great comfort in this knowledge. But this book and our memory verse isn't just about the future. Jen helps us consider how we can live faithful lives in the present as we trust in our everlasting, powerful, returning God. It's a conversation that you won't want to miss!
This month's memory verse: "Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty, who is, and was and is to come." —Revelation 4:8b
