Welcome. If Revelation has ever felt like a locked door, come sit with us as we open it gently, together. In this first episode, Christ John Otto welcomes you into The Apocalypse for Artists and shares why this strange, beautiful book was never meant to frighten you—it was written to show you Jesus.
In this episode: - How Revelation quietly resolves every tension in Scripture: Babylon and Jerusalem, Beast and Lamb, Christ and antichrist - Why an artist's eye—not just a scholar's—is exactly what this book needs - A little about John, the man who received this vision, and why his voice feels so personal - A gentle look at when this was written, and the hard season it was written into - Why Otto loves picturing Revelation as a cosmic pop-up book, unfolding one wonder at a time - How the whole story, all the way back to Genesis, finds its rest here
This is a study of the Book of Revelation, the Apocalypse for Artists, offered as a way of making a way for the coming of the Lord.
Next time: a warm conversation about grids, Bibles, and studying Scripture with an open heart instead of a fixed answer.
Christ John Otto leads Belonging House International, and is the author of Artists at a Shift in Time: Courage in a Time of Change and Transition.
