Applying the Apocalypse: Deepening Our Obedience to the Message of Revelation
MTS Professors Aaron Robinson, Tom Roberts, and Eric Redmond will bring their Johannine scholarship and wealth of experience as present and former seniors pastors to draw out the meaning and significance of passages in Revelation. Building upon their academic research and teaching, and their preaching of the Apocalypse, they will explain how John’s vision to those living under the oppression of the Roman empire is most appropriate for living as faithful witnesses among contemporary oppressions.
The workshop will offer personal time with the professors, an extended Q&A, and a lunch for those attending in-person. The workshop will offer special attention to preaching the Apocalypse while providing understanding and application relevant for all.
