If you were to poll your Christian friends as to what they thought was the most confusing, daunting, or intimidating book of the Bible, the Revelation of Jesus Christ would likely be near (or at!) the top of the list. Maybe it's because of the symbols and prophetic language. Perhaps it's because they've heard some confusing teaching in the past. Or, there's a chance they still haven't recovered from watching Left Behind in Youth Group. Whatever the reason, many of God's people stay away from the end of God's story and this cumulative section of God's word. That's tragic.

Today we're going to try and peel away a layer or two of such impediments by discussing the approachability and understandability of the book of Revelation. Rather than scary and intimidating, we will find that it's awe-inspiring and hope-instilling. Oh, and there's promised blessing.
