Speaker: Pastor Luke Herche

In this introduction to the book of Revelation, Pastor Luke Herche looks at various passages from Revelation and shows us that Revelation is a picture book. Listen as Pastor Luke explains, addressing four questions: What does that mean? Why is it important? How do we understand it? And what does it show us?

Part of a series on the book of Revelation.

Want to go deeper? Take some time to reflect on the sermon with the following questions:

As we begin this journey through the final book of the Bible, what vivid image from the book (whether mentioned in the sermon or not) stirs your imagination or curiosity the most and why?

The sermon suggests that Revelation is less like a puzzle to be solved and more like a picture book intended to show us spiritual realities. How does that shift in perspective change the way you feel about opening this book?

If this book truly “pulls back the curtain” on the inner workings of our world, what is one area of life where you are longing to see things as they really are from God’s perspective?

In what ways have you become so consumed with cultural pleasures or social ills (things we can see with our eyes) that you’ve lost sight of God’s sovereign grace at work in the world?

Since things are often not what they appear in this age, what is one practical way you can proceed with humility and trust God’s “corrective lenses” rather than your own self-confidence this week?
