Historically, the book of Revelation has led to some people to some pretty sketchy interpretations and conclusions. But what does it really say to us? How are we to approach this important book and read it correctly? As we enter into a new sermon series walking through the book of Revelation, John sits down with Pastor Eric and Pastor Dave to address this question. Here is part one of a two part episode on how to read the book of Revelation.
