When I was in high school I attended a Teen Community Bible Study where we spent a whole term studying and delving into the book of Revelation. However other than that, in all my years of Sunday School, youth group, private Christian School and even while earning my Bachelor of Arts in Religious Studies I never again recall any in depth touch on Revelation.

Author and Pastor Skip has a great voice on the page and is very passionate about explaining just how the book of Revelation is full of encouragement for all Christians. - Not something you often here when mentioning Revelation.

"While a little faith may bring your souls to heaven, a lot of faith--clinging to God despite your circumstances--will bring heaven to your soul." -p.17

Reading this book is like sitting in a comfortable setting and having all the symbols and references to the Old Testament books and New Testament times explained. Then one can delve further study on their own and find these things to be making much more sense.
