Living as Dissident Disciples: Revelation’s Call to Witness and Faithfulness

Episode Summary: The Book of Revelation is often approached with a sense of mystery or even trepidation, as it is filled with vivid imagery and apocalyptic visions. Yet, at its core, this remarkable text offers a compelling invitation to live as “dissident disciples” who remain unwavering in their witness to Christ and courageous in their faith. In this episode, we unpack Revelation’s enduring message, not as a mere forecast of future events but as a powerful call to faithful and transformative discipleship. Through the lens of Scot McKnight’s Revelation for the Rest of Us: A Prophetic Call to Follow Jesus as a Dissident Disciple, we will explore how Revelation inspires believers to embrace hospitality, identity, and resilience in the face of cultural pressures.
