Revelation 11 is the most difficult to interpret, but perhaps the most central to John's message for the church. In this sermon, Pastor Bill helps us to "follow the hyperlinks" back to the Old Testament so that we can understand John's message and apply it to our lives.

In Revelation 6, God's judgment against evil begins.  Consequently, this is typically where people stop reading, and where preachers stop preaching.  But God's judgment is good news, and this section of the book (Revelation 6-19) is actually filled with encouragement and guidance for God's People.  In this sermon, Pastor Bill talks about how we should approach these chapters, and unpacks the purpose and pattern of judgment in Revelation.

In Revelation 2-3, we see Jesus pastoring a variety of churches with tenderness and compassion.  Pastor Bill reflects on the ways College Church has experienced Jesus' tenderness and compassion and calls us to extend the same tenderness and compassion to other neighboring churches. 

Babylon penetrates and colonizes in the church.  Jesus stands among the churches speaking affirmation, correction and motivation so that each church can resist Babylon and remain faithful to Him.

Pierre Willems speaks on Revelation 1:9-20 where God asks us to trust that Jesus is the one true king. While this can be difficult because of the evil still in the world, we are asked to see the world through God's eyes and develop a vision of Jesus that reflects this reality. 

One day, the Kingdoms of this world will pass away, and God's Kingdom will remain.  What Kingdom are you building toward?  What will it take to resist the Kingdoms of the earth?  What habits and relationships do we need in our lives to resist our modern "Babylons" so we can remain faithful to Jesus

In Revelation 17 we meet the Great Prostitute--Pastor John's symbol for Rome. This symbol is designed to call and equip Jesus' followers to discern and resist the dominant culture that wants to shape our imaginations and determine both who and how we worship. 

The Book of Revelation can feel like a wilderness.  As we begin our journey through this strange and wonderful book, we begin by getting our bearings: who are the main characters?  What is the plot?  And why does any of this matter to people today?

The Book of Revelation can feel like a wilderness.  As we begin our journey through this strange and wonderful book, we begin by getting our bearings: what kind of literature in Revelation?  Why does that matter?  Who wrote it?  What occasioned it?  What does God want to do in His People, through this book?

Unlike many other New Testament letters, James keeps his preacher foot on the gas right to the very end of his letter--calling his readers to radical integrity, a life of radical prayer, and a community of radical love.
