Anchor Passage: (Revelation 15-16)Just as God heard the cries of His people in slavery, God has heard the cries of His people living through the oppression of this world. He pours out seven bowls of judgment, and after the last one, a voice speaks from the throne: “It is done.” Join us as we see how sin will be justly punished, either in the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, or in us.

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 14)On Mount Zion, John sees 144,000 people standing with the Lamb, marked with His name and the Father’s name on their foreheads, singing a new song only they know. Join us as we see how Jesus forgives and marks those who follow Him, promising everlasting life!

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 12-13)John receives a vision of a dragon, a woman, a Child, a Lamb, and two beasts—one that helps us understand the reality of what has happened and is happening in the world. The dragon and the two beasts form an unholy trinity, as Satan deceptively attempts to imitate God. But they are conquered by Jesus. Join us as we see how Christ’s victory is certain, and His victory is our victory!

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 10-11)An angel appears, holding a message for the whole world: the message of the mystery of Christ. John swallows the scroll that the angel held, and it is both bitter to his stomach and sweet to his mouth. Christians carry the same sweet burden for the world that John describes, while facing the bitterness of persecution. Join us as we see how we are called to be Christ’s witnesses, knowing the glory He promises is greater than our trials in this world!

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 8-9)Seven angels blow seven trumpets. These trumpets bring destruction, and represent a dire warning for some and victory for others. Join us as we see how Jesus warns before He judges because He is gracious and holy!

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 6-8:1)Four riders bring conquest, famine, war, and death into the world as they open the seals of the scroll. Where there isn’t agreement on when the seals will happen (or happened), we know that God is the One who opens them. Because He is holy, God blesses His people, punishes sin, and offers His perfect judgment. Join us as we see how God judges and blesses!

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 4-5)Of all the pictures of Heaven in Scripture, John’s description in Revelation is unique: his vision includes One who is at the center of Heaven’s throne, the Lion and the Lamb, Jesus, the One who has conquered. The throne is not empty! Join us as we look at this powerful image of Jesus, seeing how He is worthy of all our praise!

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 2-3)Jesus gives seven promises to those who overcome the world and continue to follow Him. Join us as we look at these amazing promises and what they mean for us today!

Anchor Passage: (Revelation 1)The book of Revelation has fascinated Christians for centuries—some with a desire to figure out all the details and some with dread over what will happen. When the book was first written, it was to comfort believers that the best was still to come for them. Join us as we see how Revelation points to the incredible truth that Jesus is always with us!

Anchor Passage: (Psalm 73)For centuries, a major question has baffled and frustrated people: why do the wicked prosper? It seems that good things happen to bad people, and bad things happen to good people. Asaph brings this struggle—this doubt—to God in Psalm 73. Join us as we look at Asaph’s Psalm and learn how we can turn to God as the source of our ultimate hope and delight!
