Church On The Up

What does the last book of the Bible really say, and is it relevant for today?

In this series, we attempt to unpack some of the great mysteries of John's apocalypse. Catch a glimpse of how God's plan for the whole of human history finally comes to an end. And in the meantime, see how Revelation inspires us to be a church on the up.

The series is split into several parts. In the first half of 2008 we looked at the start of the book, the introduction and the letters to the churches. Part 2 in the autumn looked through the middle portion. Part 3 in the spring/summer of 2009 covered the remainder of the book.

Here are the studies, along with MP3's of each sermon so that you can listen again.
