The book of Revelation often gets framed as something to fear—but at its heart, it’s an invitation to faithful endurance. In this introduction to our Revelation series, we step into the book as a pastoral letter written to real churches facing real pressure, reminding us that Jesus is not distant or detached—He is present, walking among His churches, seeing what’s happening, and speaking with both truth and hope. Rather than offering an escape from the world, Revelation pulls back the curtain on reality as God sees it, inviting us to truly hear what the Spirit is saying and respond with lives shaped by Jesus’ faithfulness. This opening message sets the tone for the weeks ahead: learning how to make the invisible God visible as we follow Jesus together with courage, humility, and hope.
