Journey to The Journey

Now is great time to start coming to The Journey! We're currently studying one of the most talked about books of the Bible, Revelation. Last week we discussed the purpose behind this Apocalypse and this Sunday we'll get into John's first vision (Revelation 1:9-20). This particular passage brought so much hope to the persecuted Christians of the 1st century. That same hope is made available to us through God's word here in this fascinating book!

This weekend we'll be jumping head first into our much-anticipated series over Revelation. I'm both intimidated and thrilled to be teaching through this book of the bible! This Sunday we'll be covering Revelation 1:1-8 and discussing why it is that this book is to be a blessing to believers.

Questions we'll discuss in this Sunday's sermon: 1. Why were these disciples fishing and not evangelizing? 2. Could this account be a parallel to Luke 5:1-11? 3. What's the significance of 153 fish? 4. Is John telling us this historical event so that we would allegorize this passage and discover eschatological significance?

Everybody wants to know what the deal is with Revelation but few take the time to examine it from different angles. Everybody wants to talk about Revelation but be careful, if you talk about it too much you'll be labeled a nut. Many say it is the most requested book of the Bible to be preached but the least preached on from the pulpit. Despite all of the preconceived ideas on this book, the various interpretive avenues Christians debate over and the mysteries of some of it's content I believe this is TOTALLY worth our while.
