The Beginning and the End

Today we start a new series for the fall of 2018 on the book of Revelation. Not as a map about when and how the world will end.Rather, we will read it as a “prophetic critique of imperial idolatry (civil religion) and injustice (military, economic, political and religious oppression), and specifically Rome’s imperial idolatry and injustice.” We will explore how in our time we should wrestle with “matters of allegiance, idolatry, violence, witness and worship.”
