This week on Cultivate, we dove into the question, “Why should we study Revelation?” with Charlie Loften and Abigail Boone. Drawing from the final book of the Bible, we explored what makes Revelation unique as apocalyptic literature and why it remains both fascinating and challenging for modern readers. Charlie Loften walked us through the context—how the Apostle John, exiled and alone, received a vision from Jesus meant to give hope, not fear, to early Christians facing adversity. We discussed key themes like God’s ultimate control over history, the role of prophecy in the New Testament, and how Revelation was written not to cause anxiety, but to remind us that God’s plan holds firm, even when life feels out of control.
Whether you’re intimidated by Revelation’s metaphors or just curious about how it fits into the broader story of Scripture, this conversation aims to demystify the book and encourage thoughtful engagement. Take a moment this week to consider how hope shapes your faith—and what it means to trust God with the future.
