Upside-Down Apocalypse

Grounding Revelation in the Gospel of Peace

I am reviewing a copy of Upside Down Apocalypse through Herald Press and Netgalley:




Since it was written the Book of Revelation which deals on a cosmic scale with good and evil, politics and empire, community and eternity has intrigued and frustrated readers since it was written.   How do we make sense of John’s prophetic vision of cosmic war in light the nonviolence Jesus embodies in the gospels? What does it mean to tell us about Jesus, our world, and the future of all things? As End Times conspiracy theories surge, it’s more important than ever that we read the final book of the Bible without distorting the true message of Jesus.






Jeremy Duncan draws on biblical scholarship and nonviolent theology to guide readers through the book of Revelation, understanding the vision of John in the light of the Jesus we know through the Gospels the full revelation of the Divine In Upside-Down Apocalypse.  





I give Upside Down Apocalypse four out of five stars!





Happy Reading!
