The book of Revelation is the Bible's most misunderstood book. But how do you teach it to your kids?Sitting at the very end of Scripture, Revelation is the book most families avoid—too strange, too scary, too filled with dragons and disasters and numbers that nobody can explain. There are beasts rising from the sea. There are horsemen bringing war and famine. There's a number—666—that has been the subject of wild speculation for two thousand years. And the imagery is so vivid and bizarre that it's spawned more bad predictions and confused theology than any other book in the Bible.But this strange, spectacular book turns out to be the Bible's grand finale—and its greatest love story. It's the unveiling of a King who has already won. It's the answer to every martyr's cry of "e;How long?"e; It's the moment when the serpent from Genesis is finally destroyed, the curse is lifted, and God comes home to live with his people forever. Skip Revelation and you miss the ending the whole Bible has been building toward.What Is the Book of Revelation?makes this intimidating book accessible for today's young readers.
