Blessed is the One Who Reads Aloud the Words of the Prophecy - Reading Revelation in the Church, Part 2
Year: 2006
Type: other
Abstract: The book of Revelation both intrugues and intimidates us. We are drawn in by the fabulous images and by the story of the triumph of God at the end of the age. But we are perplexed to make sense of the images and interpret them in th elight of our circumstances today. This workshop will look at how Revelation might be used profitably by the church. Attention to the shape of the book, its theological themes, and its dramatic nature will be given. This workshop will conclude with dramatic interpretations of selected texts from Revelation.
