    0:00 - 51:42 How to Interpret the book of Revelation
    51:42 - 1:03:48 Q&A
    *52:06 - How would you best counsel non-believers who have anxiety about the end of the world?
    *54:44 - Should we be concerned if our favorite Reformed preacher has dispensational views on
    eschatology?
    *57:38 - Do you think dispensational theology is more concerning than other disagreements we may have in
    theology? For example do you feel like it is more concerning that John MacArthur is dispensational
    or that Tim Keller, who has the same view of eschatology as y'all, has different views on social
    justice.
